[PATCH 0/2] Updating information on lanana.org

[Lukas Bulwahn]

Dear Jon,

please pick these two changes that update information in MAINTAINERS and
the kernel documentation on the actual state of lanana.org.

Thanks,

Lukas

[PATCH 1/2] MAINTAINERS: remove historic section DEVICE NUMBER REGISTRY

[Lukas Bulwahn]

As described in Documentation/admin-guide/devices.rst, the device number
registry (or linux device list) is at Documentation/admin-guide/devices.txt
and no longer maintained at lanana.org.

The devices.txt file is basically community-maintained, and there is no
other dedicated maintainer or contact for that file nowadays.

Remove the historic section DEVICE NUMBER REGISTRY in MAINTAINERS.

Note: According to the get_maintainer script, Jonathan Corbet would be the
maintainer of those files, but probably everyone knows that the formal
role is really among various kernel developers, and not with Jon as
a benevolent dictator.

Jon, if that is fine for you, we just keep that with MAINTAINERS as-is.
Otherwise, I can send a specific change to exclude those two files,
Documentation/admin-guide/devices.{rst|txt} from the DOCUMENTATION
section in MAINTAINERS, but I do not see that critical, as only very little
changes happen to those files nowadays.

[PATCH 2/2] docs: admin: unicode: update information on state of lanana.org document

[Lukas Bulwahn]

Replace link to a non-existing page with a note that lanana.org does not
maintain Linux Zone Unicode Assignments anymore.

Remove the reference to H. Peter Anvin and the unicode lanana.org email as
the maintainer of this file, as at this point, this is all maintained by
the general kernel community.
