PATCH v2 1/1 MAINTAINERS: Update CXL, NVDIMM, DAX, and others for djbw

Dan is no longer with us. Removing entries in MAINTAINERS to prevent people from keep emailing his address.

Frank will take over for async_tx until the feature is removed.

Alistair will take over on fsdax with Alison continue to wrangle patches for DAX overall patches.

---

v2:
- Add Frank as reviewer for async_tx.
- Alistair has been working on fsdax and agreed to be maintainer.
