You are missing the point. Photon (and every such other elementary particle that annihilates itself we know) is a boson.
Majorana fermion is a fermion whose anti-particle is itself. No such elementary particle exists (so far).
What these people have done is a way of arranging some electrons such that they behave like Majorana fermions.
