The PREEMPTIBLE KERNEL section entry seems quite outdated:
Robert Love is not actively maintaining the file anymore, nor a recorded contributor to the files in the PREEMPTIBLE KERNEL section for the last few years.
The mailing list kpreempt-tech@lists.sourceforge.net does not exist anymore; the website just points to some very old patches for v2.4/v2.5.
So, let's delete the PREEMPTIBLE KERNEL section entry and clean this up:
- Documentation/preempt-locking.txt is not modified much anyway, and the changes in that file are generally maintained by Jonathan Corbet. So, we do not need to explicitly mention Documentation/preempt-locking.txt in MAINTAINERS.
- include/linux/preempt.h is maintained by Peter and Ingo, so we simply add that file to the SCHEDULER section entry.
I got directed to this issue, as I could not subscribe to the outdated mailing list address and decided to investigate and then cleaned this up.
