There are a number of file patterns in MAINTAINERS that don't have an actual matching file in the kernel tree.

Some of those are due to renames, some are typos, some are added without a matching file being added at the same time.

There's a pending, might be applied patch to reorder all the sections alphabetically.

Trying to do any corrections to MAINTAINERS today would make that patch and any other renaming not apply properly so I'm not touching MAINTAINERS much until it's settled.

Here's the sorted list of missing/typo file patterns:

I don't think that Linus is interested in applying it. :(

I think he would apply it if it applied without
merge issues.
