[PATCH 9/9] docs: maintainers: add a filtering javascript
From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab
Date: Mon May 04 2026 - 11:56:29 EST
The maintainers table is big. Add a javascript to allow filtering
it. Such script is only added at the page which contains the
maintainers-include tag.
I opted to keep the search case-sensitive, as, this way,
upper case searches at subsystem.
