I won't weigh in on the Google-to-Coreboot naming, but if you're doing
it...
...this leaves MAINTAINERS sorted incorrectly. You'll need to move this
entry between "CONTROL GROUP ..." and "CORETEMP ...".

I think something about how you sent v12 has broken a few things:

 1) some aritificial line-breaks; the above 2 lines should be 1 line.
    This breaks `git am`
 2) the email threading seems missing

v11 and most (all?) previous versions didn't have this problem.
