Subject: MAINTAINERS: group all VMA-related files into the VMA section
Date: Fri, 6 Dec 2024 19:16:00 +0000
There are a number of means of interacting with VMA operations within mm,
and we have on occasion not been made aware of impactful changes due to
these sitting in different files, most recently in [0].
Correct this by bringing all VMA operations under the same section in
MAINTAINERS. Additionally take the opportunity to combine MEMORY MAPPING
with VMA as there needn't be two entries as they amount to the same thing.
