Thank you for the forward, Peter, I have queued Jeremy's patch for
testing and review.

But Jeremy's list of email addresses is what you would expect from
looking at MAINTAINERS, so how about the following patch?

commit 58322063498c8f5a3cc88f95bee237a0ce81f70a
Author: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

    torture: Place all torture-test modules in one MAINTAINERS group
    
    There is some confusion about where patches to kernel/torture.c
    and kernel/locking/locktorture.c should be sent.  This commit
    therefore updates MAINTAINERS appropriately.
