I decided to drop this patch from my queue, as I took the suggestion
from Joe and sent a patch to have get_maintainer report email address
in the dts file.

It's OK to find maintainers in files, but what about the
B: bug reporting and T: source code repository location lines,

Those seem useful.

People feel like their mails go into a void when no
responses happen after sending to nameless addresses.

It's better to have a named individual as a maintainer
rather than an unspecified exploder address.

It's OK to have both, but just the exploder doesn't
really have that much value as it's faceless.

This T: line should be something else.

Perhaps

Hmm, I doubt they are practically useful for just a number of dts files.
They are more used for out-of-tree Librem5 kernel drivers, I guess.

Shawn, Joe,

Cool idea! Multiple times I needed review/testing for individual
boards and this should be faster than going through git history.

Could you tell me how this is supposed to work for DTS/DTSI files? It
seems it ignores the comments, so usual copyright notice does not have
an effect. Where to put the address?

Best regards,
Krzysztof

The get_maintainer.pl script reads an existing file and
looks for whatever appears to be an email address.

It does not ignore comments.
