  To: Artem Bityutskiy; +Cc: David Woodhouse, Brian Norris, linux-mtd

Although 'linux-2.6.git' is still a valid repository, the preferred name is
just 'linux.git', now that Linux has reached version 3.x. And David also has
his repository under 'linux-mtd.git' now, so we might as well redirect to the
modern naming.

So:
 linux-2.6.git -> linux.git
 mtd-2.6.git -> linux-mtd.git
