The MAINTAINERS file header has never shown a preferred order for the section entries but scripts/parse-maintainers.pl added a preferred order with commit61f741645a("parse-maintainers: Add section pattern sorting") Commit5cdbec108f("parse-maintainers: Do not sort section content by default") changed the preferred order to be a bit more sensible. Update the MAINTAINERS section description block to use this preferred section entry ordering. Add a slightly better description for the N: entry too.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
