While you respin - AI suggests spelling the name right in the commit
msg:

  A few small things in the changelog, and a process question.
The names in the changelog do not match the names in the diff. The
changelog says "Mathew Gerlach", but the removed lines say "Matthew
Gerlach <[email protected]>". The changelog says "Maxime
Chevalier", but the added lines say "Maxime Chevallier
<[email protected]>". Could the spellings be fixed so that
searching for either name finds this commit?
There is also a typo: "dt-bindgings" should be "dt-bindings".
On the process side, the patch moves both binding files under the
"ARM/SOCFPGA DWMAC GLUE LAYER" entry maintained by Maxime Chevallier and
rewrites the maintainers field of both YAML schemas to name him, but the
only tag is Signed-off-by from the submitter. Should an Acked-by from
Maxime Chevallier be recorded here to back up the "has volunteered"
