This sorting logic already in the file:
 Yanjie Xu <yanjie.xu at intel.com>
 Yan Xia <yanx.xia at intel.com>

and I don't know how to take following (may sort be ignoring the
white-space between name and surname?):
 Yi Li <liyi1 at chinatelecom.cn>
 Yi Liu <yi.liu at nxp.com>
 Yilong Lv <lvyilong.lyl at alibaba-inc.com>
 Yi Lu <luyi68 at live.com>


But to be able to sort whole file with 'sort' and no need to manually
fix above quirks, I am OK with the change, hence:
