Maybe something like:
MAINTAINERS: UPDATES TO THIS FILE M: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> S: Odd fixes F: MAINTAINERS
But then Andrew tried to get me added as a checkpatch maintainer and I demurred, so he'll have to add himself if he wants.
Anyway, even without a specific MAINTAINERS maintainer entry, get_maintainers uses git log history and Andrew shows up anyway.
