L stands for "Mailing list that is relevant to this area", and this is a

Your proposed patch isn't changing the L entry, so this is of no relevance.

Sorry, I am not understanding.

The current entry in MAINTAINERS is:
DEVICE-MAPPER (LVM)
M: Alasdair Kergon <agk@xxxxxxxxxx>
M: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@xxxxxxxxxx>
M: dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx
L: dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx
...

So my patch just removed the line : "M: dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx"

So now the entry becomes :
DEVICE-MAPPER (LVM)
M: Alasdair Kergon <agk@xxxxxxxxxx>
M: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@xxxxxxxxxx>
L: dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx
...

So, now it correctly shows dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx as a mailing list which should have cc to all the patches related to LVM.

Or am I understanding this wrong?
