MAINTAINERS: List file memory-barriers.txt within the LKMM entry

We now have a shiny new Linux-kernel memory model (LKMM) and the old
tried-and-true Documentation/memory-barrier.txt.  It would be good to
keep these automatically synchronized, but in the meantime we need at
least let people know that they are related.  Will suggested adding the
Documentation/memory-barrier.txt file to the LKMM maintainership list,
thus making the LKMM maintainers responsible for both the old and the new.
This commit follows Will's excellent suggestion.
