The following organisations appear on the US sanctions list:

  Yadro: https://sanctionssearch.ofac.treas.gov/Details.aspx?id=41125
  ISPRAS: https://sanctionssearch.ofac.treas.gov/Details.aspx?id=50890

As a result maintainers interacting with such entities would face
legal risk in a number of jurisdictions. To reduce the risk of
inadvertent non-compliance remove entries from these organisations
from the MAINTAINERS file.

Mark the pcf8574 system as orphaned until someone volunteers to step
up as a maintainer. Add myself as a second reviewer to record/replay
so I can help with what odd fixes I can.

Hi,

A bit offtopic: we just received patches from Syntacore [1]. Syntacore
does not appear in the US sanction list website, but in a Google search
I found out that Syntacore was acquired by Yadro in 2019, i.e. Yadro is
its parent organization. And Yadro has been sanctioned.

Does anybody know the rule in this case? If a parent company is sanctioned
does that cascade to all its subsidiaries? I have no idea whether we can engage
with these patches or not.


Thanks,

Daniel
