There were enough problems with suse.{com,cz} MTAs recently. I am bored by restoring lost e-mails from public archives. Let's switch (all) my MAINTAINERS addresses to @kernel.org and forward the e-mails there as I wish. And add the whole history to .mailmap.

Commit ed318a6c ("fscrypt: support test_dummy_encryption=v2") added an entry to the massive option table in Documentation/filesystems/f2fs.txt. The option was too wide for the formatting of the table, though, leading to a verbose and ugly warning starting with: Documentation/filesystems/f2fs.rst:229: WARNING: Malformed table. Text in column margin in table line 126. Fixing this requires formatting the whole table; let's hear it for Emacs query-replace-regexp.

The sphinx-pre-install script will put out a verbose message recommending an upgrade for anybody running less than 2.4.4 - which was only released in March. So *everybody* will see that warning at this point. Let's only warn if the user is below our generally recommended version (1.7.9 currently). It might be good to put out a warning if people are explicitly making PDF files, but would need to be done in a different place and relatively few people do that.

There are several files that I was unable to find a proper place for them, and 3 ones that are still in plain old text format. Let's place those stuff behind the carpet, as we'd like to keep the root directory clean. We can later discuss and move those into better places.

Add zero-length and one-element arrays to the list.

The SafeSetID LSM uses the security_task_fix_setuid hook to filter set*uid() syscalls according to its configured security policy. In preparation for adding analagous support in the LSM for set*gid() syscalls, we add the requisite hook here. Tested by putting print statements in the security_task_fix_setgid hook and seeing them get hit during kernel boot.
