Subject: [PATCH] Documentation: maintainer: Improve grammar in mailing list participation section

In the section "Mailing list participation", the first few
lines had grammatical errors and overall was not clear. I
fixed this by adding "The" before "Linux kernel" and
specifying that the mailing list is for developers.
