I think you will have better luck if you go subsystem by subsystem, e.g.
send gpio change to gpio maintainer, usb change to usb maintainer and so
on. In addition, you'll want to try and understand/explain why those
lines were added in the 1st place and how it won't break other existing
use cases by removing them. Maybe "git blame" will help for that...
