Since then, there have been a few simple patches to Kconfig that have ended up on the linux-kbuild mailing list without clear direction on who will take them, as they are not really sent to anybody officially, although the list is obviously watched by the Kbuild maintainers. Make Nicolas and I official maintainers of Kconfig in "Odd Fixes" status, similiar to Kbuild, so that the subsystem has clear points of contact for contributors, even if significant contributions may not be accepted. Additionally, add the Kbuild tree to this section.
