I'm starting to suspect that maybe the best workflow would be to just 
apply the patches at docs-next keeping links broken, and then run
./scripts/documentation-file-ref-check --fix by the end of a merge
window, addressing such breakages.

There are usually lots of churn outside the merge window.

Another alternative would be to split the MAINTAINERS file on a
per-subsystem basis. If I remember well, someone proposed this once at
LKML. I vaguely remember that there were even a patch (or RFC)
adding support for such thing for get_maintainers.pl.

Thanks,
Mauro
