get_maintainers.pl doesn't work on MAINTAINERS. You need to send this
to the maintainers of the files listed in the entry below. Looks like
that would be the x86 maintainers.


What did Mauro, David and I do to become MAINTAINERS maintainers?

Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+huawei@xxxxxxxxxx>
(commit_signer:127/806=16%,authored:80/806=10%)
Rob Herring <robh@xxxxxxxxxx> (commit_signer:103/806=13%)
"David S. Miller" <davem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> (commit_signer:99/806=12%)
linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (open list)


Can we make --no-git-fallback the default? It's useful for
informational purposes, but never for who to email patches to. Having
no output would be better, then submitters have to think about where
to send patches.

What ever happened to splitting up MAINTAINERS to subdirectories? That
would help routing MAINTAINERS changes to the right maintainers.
