[PATCH] MAINTAINERS: powerpc: update VMX AES entries

From: Thorsten Blum <hidden>
Date: 2026-05-24 21:31:06

Commit 7cf2082e74ce ("lib/crypto: powerpc/aes: Migrate POWER8 optimized
code into library") removed arch/powerpc/crypto/aes.c and moved
arch/powerpc/crypto/aesp8-ppc.pl to lib/crypto/powerpc/.

However, the "IBM Power VMX Cryptographic instructions" entry still
references the removed file and no longer covers the moved aesp8-ppc.pl.

Remove the stale entry, add lib/crypto/powerpc/aesp8-ppc.pl, and tighten
the arch/powerpc/crypto/aesp8-ppc.* pattern to match the remaining
header only.

If this doesn't get picked up through the powerpc tree, I can take this
through libcrypto-next.

I can take this via ppc tree.
