Entirely up to you. I tend to take a look at all IIO patches but will take a less detailed look if there is a tag from someone I've built up trust with - doesn't matter if they are a maintainer of a particular driver or not. I only ever look at MAINTAINERS when sending out patches, never when reviewing except to perhaps moan that someone wasn't cc'd who should have been!
