When running get_maintainer.pl on security/Kconfig.hardening, only the

Add it to the hardening section so that the KSPP folks are also shown,
which matches reality over who should comment on and take said patches
if necessary.

For the sake of casual observers, the reason James, Serge, or I haven't
merged anything in Kconfig.hardening isn't due to any malicious intent or
lack of appreciation, rather it is out of respect for KSPP and not wanting
to step on Kees' toes. I've happily merged KSPP related patches to those
subsystems which I'm tasked with looking after and I plan to continue to do so.
