MAINTAINERS currently has:
F: *Files* and directories wildcard patterns.
A trailing slash includes all files and subdirectory files.
F: drivers/net/ all files in and below drivers/net
F: drivers/net/* all files in drivers/net, but not below
F: */net/* all files in "any top level directory"/net
F: fs/**/*foo*.c all *foo*.c files in any subdirectory of fs
How would you make that clearer?
