    This patch updates the MAINTAINERS entries for the media drivers.
    
    We are doing a few changes during 2009 to improve patch handling for
    drivers/media stuff.
    
    Currently, v4l-dvb-maintainer list at linuxtv.org were used to to be v4l/dvb
    driver maintainers ML, in order to keep track of patch merge requests and to
    receive bug fixes. This list allows posting for everybody, but, in order to
    avoid spam, the user subscribe/unsubscribe at the ML is moderated. Other
    development discussions and end-user forums happened on two separated ML (one
    for V4L and another for DVB).
    
    At the beginning of 2009, we've created linux-media@vger.kernel.org, meaning to
    be the main upstream development mailing list for drivers/media, including V4L
    and DVB core and drivers.
    
    The choice for vger.kernel.org were due to the fact that most of upstream lists
    are there. Also, its anti-spam filtering rules are better than what we
    currently have at linuxtv.org.
    
    For now, both video4linux-list and linux-dvb ML will remain active, but more
    focused on end users. It is expected that those lists will gradually be
    replaced also by linux-media@vger.kernel.org.
    
    This patch reflect those changes at linux MAINTAINERS file.
    
    Since the development and bug fix discussions will now happen at
    linux-media@vger.kernel.org, this patch does the following changes
    
    	- replaces v4l-dvb-maintainer ML for the new
    	  linux-media@vger.kernel.org;
    
    	- replaces video4linux ML for the new linux-media@vger.kernel.org;
    
    While here, it also:
    
    	- Fixes the existing -git tree entries for drivers/media (since the
              repository name changed);
    
    	- Adds the missing drivers/media -git tree entry on a few maintainers
              entries that don't point to a tree.
