PATCH 1/1 MAINTAINERS: Remove PPP maintainer

I am not currently maintaining the kernel PPP code, so remove my address from the MAINTAINERS entry for it.

---
I am still maintaining the user-space PPP daemon, though. Also, the [email protected] address will probably stop working soon.

Also, the [email protected] address will probably stop working soon.

How about adding an entry for that in .mailmap, then, to avoid bounces (if a script picks up that address from a commit where it still appears or something like that)? :)
