On Linux MAINTAINERS file removal of Russian developers

All you #homelab, #linux, etc bloggers and Youtubers out there: When using nano, CTRL+s will save the file.
You don't have to exit without saving and then answer Y to the prompt `save modified buffer`, then `enter` to keep the same filename.
Be intentional: save file, exit editor. CTRL+s, CTRL+x

That is all. πŸ™‚
