The patch titled Subject: get_maintainer: allow keywords to match filenames has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was get_maintainer-allow-keywords-to-match-filenames.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Stephen Warren <swarren@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: get_maintainer: allow keywords to match filenames Allow K: entries in MAINTAINERS to match directly against filenames; either those extracted from patch +++ or --- lines, or those specified on the command-line using the -f option. This potentially allows fewer lines in a MAINTAINERS entry, if all the relevant files are scattered throughout the whole kernel tree, yet contain some common keyword. An example would be using an ARM SoC name as the keyword to catch all related drivers. I don't think setting exact_pattern_match_hash would be appropriate here; at least for intended Tegra use case, this feature is to ensure that all Tegra-related driver changes get Cc'd to the Tegra mailing list. Setting exact_pattern_match_hash would prevent git history parsing for e.g. S-o-b tags, which still seems like it would be useful. Hence, this flag isn't set.
