Subject: MAINTAINERS: move memory balloon infrastructure to "MEMORY MANAGEMENT - BALLOON"
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c0f609f799212e8ae0086b83a24ac616e0cd5696;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

MAINTAINERS: move memory balloon infrastructure to "MEMORY MANAGEMENT - BALLOON"

Nowadays, there is nothing virtio-balloon specific anymore about these
files, the basic infrastructure is used by multiple memory balloon
drivers.

For now we'll route it through Andrew's tree, maybe in some future it
makes sense to route this through a separate tree.
