I think it works fine, and is an acceptable
approach to finding a maintainer for either a
patch or a specific file.
The changes I've posted are probably not suitable
for merging by anyone other than Linus as
MAINTAINERS is the most heavily modified file
in the kernel tree.
I've submitted it several times after merging it
with the latest kernel without response from Linus.
I'd merge and submit it again if it could be accepted.
If someone would propose a mechanism that would
improve the possibility to get it merged, I'd
also appreciate that.
