Currently, fsverity development is reusing the same mailing list, git repo
(though a different branch), and patchwork project as fscrypt --- mainly just
because I was a little lazy and didn't bother to ask for new ones:

FSCRYPT: FILE SYSTEM LEVEL ENCRYPTION SUPPORT
[...]
L:      [email protected]
Q:      https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-fscrypt/list/
T:      git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/fscrypt/fscrypt.git
[...]

FSVERITY: READ-ONLY FILE-BASED AUTHENTICITY PROTECTION
[...]
L:      [email protected]
Q:      https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-fscrypt/list/
T:      git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/fscrypt/fscrypt.git fsverity
[...]

I think this is causing some confusion.  It also makes it so that people can't
subscribe to the list for just one or the other.

What would people say about having a separate mailing list, git repo, and
patchwork project for fsverity?  So the fsverity entry would look like:

FSVERITY: READ-ONLY FILE-BASED AUTHENTICITY PROTECTION
[...]
L:      [email protected]
Q:      https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-fsverity/list/
T:      git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/fsverity/fsverity.git
[...]

For the branches in the git repo, I'm thinking of using 'for-next' and
'for-current'.  (I'd also update the fscrypt ones to match; currently they are
'master' and 'for-stable'.)

If people are okay with these changes, I'll send off the needed requests to
helpdesk and linux-next to make these changes, and send Linus a pull request to
update MAINTAINERS.  (And update fsverity-utils to point to the new list.)
