I think it would make sense to have it like this:

NOKIA N900 POWER SUPPLY DRIVERS
+R: Pali Rohár <pali.rohar@xxxxxxxxx>
-M: Pali Rohár <pali.rohar@xxxxxxxxx>
-S: Maintained
F: include/linux/power/bq2415x_charger.h
F: include/linux/power/bq27xxx_battery.h
F: include/linux/power/isp1704_charger.h
F: drivers/power/bq2415x_charger.c
F: drivers/power/bq27xxx_battery.c
F: drivers/power/isp1704_charger.c
F: drivers/power/rx51_battery.c

+TI BQ27XXX POWER SUPPLY DRIVER
+R: Andrew F. Davis <afd@xxxxxx>
+F: include/linux/power/bq27xxx_battery.h
+F: drivers/power/bq27xxx_battery.c
+F: drivers/power/bq27xxx_battery_i2c.c
+
POWER SUPPLY CLASS/SUBSYSTEM and DRIVERS
M: Sebastian Reichel <sre@xxxxxxxxxx>
M: Dmitry Eremin-Solenikov <dbaryshkov@xxxxxxxxx>
M: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
L: linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
T: git git://git.infradead.org/battery-2.6.git
S: Maintained
F: include/linux/power_supply.h
F: drivers/power/
X: drivers/power/avs/

This would result in the following get_maintainer.pl output
for the bq27xxx driver.

sre@earth ~/src/linux [n950] % ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f drivers/power/bq27xxx_battery.c
"Andrew F. Davis" <afd@xxxxxx> (reviewer:TI BQ27XXX POWER SUPPLY DRIVER)
"Pali Rohár" <pali.rohar@xxxxxxxxx> (reviewer:NOKIA N900 POWER SUPPLY DRIVERS)
Sebastian Reichel <sre@xxxxxxxxxx> (maintainer:POWER SUPPLY CLASS/SUBSYSTEM and DRIVERS)
Dmitry Eremin-Solenikov <dbaryshkov@xxxxxxxxx> (maintainer:POWER SUPPLY CLASS/SUBSYSTEM and DRIVERS)
David Woodhouse <dwmw2@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> (maintainer:POWER SUPPLY CLASS/SUBSYSTEM and DRIVERS)
linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (open list:POWER SUPPLY CLASS/SUBSYSTEM and DRIVERS)
linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (open list)

Pali, what do you think about the reviewer/maintainer change?
I think it makes it more clear, that the patches are queued in
the battery tree. If you think its a downgrade I don't mind not
changing it, though.
