These files should also be added to the Live Update entry, and the kexec
mailing list should be included.

Changes specific to Live Update should be routed through the
liveupdate/linux.git tree, while generic PCI changes should go through
pci/pci.git. In either case, if liveupdate.c or abi/pci.h are modified,
acks are required from the Live Update group.
