MAINTAINERS: mention for-next branch in MEMORY MANAGEMENT - MEMORY MAP

Patch series "MAINTAINERS: MM updates".

Several MM updates:

Make Zi Yan a THP maintainer (thanks for all your hard work over
the years and thanks for taking on this responsibility), and perform some
MM MAINTAINERS cleanups.

Then, start the next step of the transition from Andrew's MM tree to
separate component trees that all get integrated into the mm-next
integration tree.

Start routing shmem through mm/core.git, adding me as a maintainer
primarily to pick patches.

Then, target the following components for the mm/core.git tree that I
(co)maintain:

     - MEMORY MANAGEMENT - BALLOON
     - MEMORY MANAGEMENT - CORE
     - MEMORY MANAGEMENT - GUP (GET USER PAGES)
     - MEMORY MANAGEMENT - KSM (Kernel Samepage Merging)
     - MEMORY MANAGEMENT - MEMORY HOT(UN)PLUG
     - MEMORY MANAGEMENT - MIGRATION
     - MEMORY MANAGEMENT - NUMA PLACEMENT
     - MEMORY MANAGEMENT - RMAP (REVERSE MAPPING)
     - MEMORY MANAGEMENT - THP (TRANSPARENT HUGE PAGE)

More details in the last patch.

In the upcoming cycles we'll then route more of the other MM components
through different trees.

Let's see how this goes, in particular with the continuous stream of
fixes. But getting these in in a controlled way has highest priority
right now wither way.


This patch (of 7):

"memmap" will be used as a prefix for branches, but not as a branch
itself. "for-next" is the integration for all these things against which
people should ideally send patches.

Not mentioning a branch makes them assume "master", which is wrong.

So just mention the right thing, which is "for-next"
