[PATCH v2] MAINTAINERS: add memory advice section

From: Lorenzo Stoakes
Date: Fri Apr 11 2025 - 03:29:22 EST


The madvise code straddles both VMA and page table manipulation. As a
result, separate it out into its own section and add maintainers/reviewers
as appropriate.

We additionally include the mman-common.h file as this contains the shared
madvise flags and it is important we maintain this alongside madvise.c.
