Should I just use *.c for now? Yeah, that will still cover lot more files, but
at least the directories, like OPP, are not going to show those maintainers.

Or I was actually thinking of moving the entire OPP directory out of
drivers/base/power, and move to drivers/opp, just like cpufreq and cpuidle. Will
that be okay?
