Deep has decided to transfer maintainership of the VMware hypervisor
interface to Srivatsa, and the joint-maintainership of paravirt ops in
the Linux kernel to Srivatsa and Alexey. Update the MAINTAINERS file
to reflect this change.

Why are MAINTAINERS updates needed for stable?  That's not normal :(

So that people posting bug-fixes / backports to these subsystems for
older kernels (stable and LTS releases) will CC the new subsystem
maintainers. That's why I added CC stable tag only to the first two
patches which add/replace maintainers and not the third patch which is
just a cleanup.

Srivatsa
