From: Srivatsa S. Bhat (VMware) <redacted> VMware mailing lists in the MAINTAINERS file are private lists meant for VMware-internal review/notification for patches to the respective subsystems. So, in an earlier discussion [1][2], it was recommended to mark them as such. Update all the remaining VMware mailing list references to use that format -- "L: list@address (private)".

This MAINTAINERS file is for _public_ use, marking something non-public isn't useful. private makes no sense and likely these L: entries shouldn't exist.
