[$] MAINTAINERS truth and fiction
Since the release of the 5.5 kernel in January 2020, there have been almost87,000 patches from just short of 4,600 developers merged into the mainlinerepository. Reviewing all of those patches would be a tall order for eventhe most prolific of kernel developers, so decisions on patch acceptanceare delegated to a long list of subsystem maintainers, each of whom takespartial or full responsibility for a specific portion of the kernel. Thesemaintainers are documented in a file called, surprisingly, MAINTAINERS.But the MAINTAINERS file, too, must be maintained; how well doesit reflect reality?
