Staging: Add staging/rdma directory and update MAINTAINERS
Create the rdma directory in the staging area for use as we deprecate some older drivers and as we bring in some new drivers that are in need of work. Update the MAINTAINERS file so that updates to these files go to [email protected]. Expected lifespan of this directory is three releases for any deprecated drivers moved here and an unknown, but theoretically bounded amount of time for the new drivers as a new core RDMA transfer library needs to be written and the drivers modified to use it in order for them to move out of this directory.

This option allows you to select a number of RDMA drivers that

fall into one of two categories: deprecated drivers being held
12+
here before finally being removed or new drivers that still need
13+
some work before being moved to the normal RDMA driver area.
