#1457872 — [PATCH] MAINTAINERS: Saying goodbye to Hans J. Koch

We had to say goodbye when Hans passed away recently. Hans was a
free-software enthusiast and an active contributor. He was the main author
and maintainer of the UIO subsystem and contributed in various ways to the
Linux kernel as a professional and hobbyist. He is greatly missed.
