Subject[PATCH v2] MAINTAINERS: Clarify UIO vs UIOVEC maintainer
From
Date
The UIO file mask in MAINTAINERS was incorrectly directing UIOVEC
(include/linux/uio.h) patches to Greg.

Tag Al as the UIOVEC maintainer as Ingo and others have explicitly
required his ack before taking architecture patches that touch
lib/iov_iter.c.
