This contains two important JFFS2 fixes marked for stable:
• a lock ordering problem between the page lock and the internal f->sem
mutex, which was causing occasional deadlocks in garbage collection, and
• a scan failure causing moved directories to sometimes end up appearing
to have hard links.
There are also a couple of trivial MAINTAINERS file updates.
