Commit log from Patch 2 repeated here for cover letter:
In order to have the MAINTAINERS file visible in the rendered ReST
output, this makes some small changes to the existing MAINTAINERS file
to allow for better machine processing, and adds a new Sphinx directive
"maintainers-include" to perform the rendering.
Features include:
- Per-subsystem reference links: subsystem maintainer entries can be
trivially linked to both internally and external. For example:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/maintainers.html#secure-computi
ng
- Internally referenced .rst files are linked so they can be followed
when browsing the resulting rendering. This allows, for example, the
future addition of maintainer profiles to be automatically linked.
- Field name expansion: instead of the short fields (e.g. "M", "F",
"K"), use the indicated inline "full names" for the fields (which are
marked with "*"s in MAINTAINERS) so that a rendered subsystem entry
is more human readable. Email lists are additionally comma-separated.
For example:
