I agree that we can remove the "L: qemu-devel" entries everywhere, but
for these subsystems that have no "M:" entry, but "S: Maintained", this
now looks somewhat strange - the subsystem is "Maintained" but has no
maintainer? I think we need somebody who feels responsible to pick up
patches here...?

It looks strange because it *is* strange.  If we take the definition of
S: in MAINTAINERS seriously, we need to appoint a maintainer (a person,
not a mailing list), or downgrade to S: Orphan.

This pattern only matches

./block/linux-aio.c
./stubs/linux-aio.c

so it can be removed

>>>  F: linux-headers/

For this I propose mst, Conny and myself.

I can volunteer for this one too, but please change the F: patterns to

F: os-posix.c
F: include/sysemu/os-posix.h
F: util/*posix*.c
F: include/qemu/*posix*.h

Thanks,

Paolo
