I haven't worked with these targets in years and can't really do

I noticed MAINTAINERS was not updated, so pushed the patch below.
That leaves the epiphany port unmaintained. Should we automatically add such
ports to the list of obsoleted ports?
Given that epiphany has randomly failed tests for the last 3+ years due to bugs
in its patterns, yes, it really needs to be deprecated.
I tried to fix the worst of the offenders in epiphany.md a few years back and
gave up. Essentially seemingly innocent changes in the RTL will cause reload
to occasionally not see a path to get constraints satisfied. So a test which
passes today, will flip to failing tomorrow while some other test of tests will
go the other way.
Does LRA make that issue go away, or does it not help?
LRA didn't trivially work on epiphany. I didn't care enough about the
port to try and make it LRA compatible.
