Besides, I don't see a MAINTAINER flag on vinum at all.  egrep
MAINTAIN in both src/sys/dev/vinum and src/sys/modules/vinum come up
empty.  In the case of ffsinfo one might have argued that Ruslan might
have done something wrong as there was a MAINTAINER flag there.  Here,
there's no MAINTAINER so Ruslan's question about why you backed out
his change is valid.
