[PATCH v4 5/5] docs: media: profile: make it clearer about maintainership duties

[Mauro Carvalho Chehab]

During the review of the media committer's profile, it was noticed
that the responsibility for timely review patches was not clear:
such review is expected that all developers listed at MAINTAINERS
with the "M:" tag (e.g. "maintainers" on its broad sense).

This is orthogonal of being a media committer or not. Such duty
is implied at:

	Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-issues.rst

and at the MAINTAINERS header, when it says that even when the
status is "odd fixes", the patches will flow in.

So, let make it explicit at the maintainer-entry-profile that
maintainers need to do timely reviews.

Also, while right now our focus is on granting committer rights to
maintainers, the media-committer model may evolve in the future to
accept other committers that don't have such duties.

So, make it clear at the media-committer.rst that the duties
related to reviewing patches from others are for the drivers
they are maintainers as well.
