just fyi: the script name is not plural

$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl  -f drivers/scsi/vmw_pvscsi.c
Arvind Kumar <arvindkumar@xxxxxxxxxx> (maintainer:VMware PVSCSI driver)
VMware PV-Drivers <pv-drivers@xxxxxxxxxx> (maintainer:VMware PVSCSI driver)
"James E.J. Bottomley" <jejb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> (maintainer:SCSI SUBSYSTEM)
"Martin K. Petersen" <martin.petersen@xxxxxxxxxx> (maintainer:SCSI SUBSYSTEM)
linux-scsi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (open list:VMware PVSCSI driver)
linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (open list)

and another fyi:

get_maintainer.pl also has a rarely used "--file-emails" option to
scan for what appears to be email addresses in specific files.

$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl  -f --file-emails drivers/scsi/vmw_pvscsi.c
Arvind Kumar <arvindkumar@xxxxxxxxxx> (maintainer:VMware PVSCSI driver,in file)
VMware PV-Drivers <pv-drivers@xxxxxxxxxx> (maintainer:VMware PVSCSI driver)
"James E.J. Bottomley" <jejb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> (maintainer:SCSI SUBSYSTEM)
"Martin K. Petersen" <martin.petersen@xxxxxxxxxx> (maintainer:SCSI SUBSYSTEM)
linux-scsi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (open list:VMware PVSCSI driver)
linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (open list)

note the "in file" after Arvind's name
