Subject: scripts/get_maintainer.pl: Add sections in pattern match directory depth order
From: Joe Perches <joe@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Before this change, matched sections were added in the normally
alphabetic order of MAINTAINERS.
For instance, finding the maintainer for drivers/scsi/wd7000.c
would first find "SCSI SUBSYSTEM", then "WD7000 SCSI SUBSYSTEM",
then "THE REST".
before patch:
$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --nogit -f drivers/scsi/wd7000.c

This patch does a length based directory match depth check by
counting the number of "/" characters in the pattern and adding
1 more if the pattern is not a directory, then selecting the
matched pattern sections by greatest depth.
This changes the example output order of MAINTAINERS to whatever is
selected in "WD7000 SUBSYSTEM", then "SCSI SYSTEM", then "THE REST".
after patch:
$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --nogit -f drivers/scsi/wd7000.c
