get_maintainer.pl always fails with following message:
./scripts/get_maintainer.pl: The current directory does not appear to be a linux kernel source tree.

Remove the CREDITS file
This file is not maintained these days.
We use MAINTAINERS for the maintainership of the supported boards.
For dead boards, we have some clues in doc/README.scrapyard and
also imperishable history in git-log.
Remove CREDITS from source tree detection to fix this.
