Subject: doc: remove unused maintainer role from guide
X-Git-Url: http://git.droids-corp.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b6e3d7a61e6b9199428ac5c5891c02c590751998;p=dpdk.git

doc: remove unused maintainer role from guide

The backup maintainer role is not explicitly used in the file MAINTAINERS.
Listing names in a priority order is preferred and more flexible
than explicit named roles.
