[PATCH 2/2] MAINTAINERS: move SLAB ALLOCATOR under MEMORY MANAGEMENT

From: Vlastimil Babka (SUSE)

Date: Sun Nov 01 2026 - 11:36:05 EST


Following David's consolidation of several other MM subcomponents, do
the same for the slab allocator.

Rename the section to MEMORY MANAGEMENT - SLAB ALLOCATOR and move it to
remain in alphabetical order.

Remove Andrew as M: to signify he's not the primary person for picking
patches in this subcomponent. get_maintainers will continue CCing him on
most patches via the catch-all MM entry. David prefers not being added
for mail volume reasons.

Indicate the primary integration branch (slab/for-next) in the T: entry.
It will now be integrrated via the mm/linux integration tree.
