[PATCH v2 11/11] MAINTAINERS: use a URL for pin-init maintainer's profile entry

From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab

Date: Tue May 05 2026 - 09:35:33 EST


This maintainer's entry is not inside documentation nor is
ReST, preventing Sphinx to create a hyperlink to it.

Change it to point to the already-formatted URL.

-# Contributing to `pin-init`
-
-Thanks for showing interest in contributing to `pin-init`! This document outlines the guidelines for
-contributing to `pin-init`.
-
-All contributions are double-licensed under Apache 2.0 and MIT. You can find the respective licenses
-in the `LICENSE-APACHE` and `LICENSE-MIT` files.
-
-## Non-Code Contributions
-
-### Bug Reports
-
-For any type of bug report, please submit an issue using the bug report issue template.
-
-If the issue is a soundness issue, please privately report it as a security vulnerability via the
-GitHub web interface.
-
-### Feature Requests
-
-If you have any feature requests, please submit an issue using the feature request issue template.
-
-### Questions and Getting Help
-
-You can ask questions in the Discussions page of the GitHub repository. If you're encountering
-problems or just have questions related to `pin-init` in the Linux kernel, you can also ask your
-questions in the [Rust-for-Linux Zulip](https://rust-for-linux.zulipchat.com/) or see
-<https://rust-for-linux.com/contact>.
-
-## Contributing Code
-
-### Linux Kernel
-
-`pin-init` is used by the Linux kernel and all commits are synchronized to it. For this reason, the
-same requirements for commits apply to `pin-init`. See [the kernel's documentation] for details. The
-rest of this document will also cover some of the rules listed there and additional ones.
-
-[the kernel's documentation]: https://docs.kernel.org/process/submitting-patches.html
-
-Contributions to `pin-init` ideally go through the [GitHub repository], because that repository runs
-a CI with lots of tests not present in the kernel. However, patches are also accepted (though not
-preferred). Do note that there are some files that are only present in the GitHub repository such as
-tests, licenses and cargo related files. Making changes to them can only happen via GitHub.
-
-[GitHub repository]: https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/pin-init
-
-### Commit Style
-
-Everything must compile without errors or warnings and all tests must pass after **every commit**.
-This is important for bisection and also required by the kernel.
-
-Each commit should be a single, logically cohesive change. Of course it's best to keep the changes
-small and digestible, but logically linked changes should be made in the same commit. For example,
-when fixing typos, create a single commit that fixes all of them instead of one commit per typo.
-
-Commits must have a meaningful commit title. Commits with changes to files in the `internal`
-directory should have a title prefixed with `internal:`. The commit message should explain the
-change and its rationale. You also have to add your `Signed-off-by` tag, see [Developer's
-Certificate of Origin]. This has to be done for both mailing list submissions as well as GitHub
-submissions.
-
-[Developer's Certificate of Origin]: https://docs.kernel.org/process/submitting-patches.html#sign-your-work-the-developer-s-certificate-of-origin
-
-Any changes made to public APIs must be documented not only in the commit message, but also in the
-`CHANGELOG.md` file. This is especially important for breaking changes, as those warrant a major
-version bump.
-
-If you make changes to the top-level crate documentation, you also need to update the `README.md`
-via `cargo rdme`.
-
-Some of these rules can be ignored if the change is done solely to files that are not present in the
-kernel version of this library. Those files are documented in the `sync-kernel.sh` script at the
-very bottom in the `--exclude` flag given to the `git am` command.
