From: Joe Perches <joe@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: get_maintainer: fix unexpected behavior for path/to//file (double slashes)

get_maintainer behaves differently if there is a double sequential forward
slash in a filename because the total number of slashes in a filename is
used to match MAINTAINERS file patterns.

For example:

# (with double slash)
$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f drivers/gpu/drm//lima
David Airlie <airlied@xxxxxxxx> (maintainer:DRM DRIVERS)
Daniel Vetter <daniel@xxxxxxxx> (maintainer:DRM DRIVERS,commit_signer:3/42=7%)
Qiang Yu <yuq825@xxxxxxxxx> (commit_signer:36/42=86%,authored:24/42=57%)
Vasily Khoruzhick <anarsoul@xxxxxxxxx> (commit_signer:26/42=62%)
Krzysztof Kozlowski <krzk@xxxxxxxxxx> (commit_signer:5/42=12%,authored:5/42=12%)
Emil Velikov <emil.velikov@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> (commit_signer:4/42=10%)
dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (open list:DRM DRIVERS)
linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (open list)

# (without double slash)
$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f drivers/gpu/drm/lima
Qiang Yu <yuq825@xxxxxxxxx> (maintainer:DRM DRIVERS FOR LIMA)
David Airlie <airlied@xxxxxxxx> (maintainer:DRM DRIVERS)
Daniel Vetter <daniel@xxxxxxxx> (maintainer:DRM DRIVERS)
dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (open list:DRM DRIVERS FOR LIMA)
lima@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (moderated list:DRM DRIVERS FOR LIMA)
linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (open list)

So reduce consecutive double slashes to a single slash
by using File::Spec->canonpath().

from: https://perldoc.perl.org/File/Spec/Unix.html

canonpath()

No physical check on the filesystem, but a logical cleanup of a path.  On
UNIX eliminates successive slashes and successive "/.".
