Add the Linux kernel's "get_maintainer.pl" script so it is available for use
with OE/Yocto layers. This script departs from the Linux kernel's version in a
couple of minor ways:

	- here there is no "penguin_chief", just an "oe_chief"
	- it is very hard to determine if the user is located at the top of a
	  valid OE/Yocto layer or not (i.e. some layers have 'conf/local.conf'
	  files, but sometimes (e.g. openembedded-core the top-level
	  directory is a placeholder and the "real" layers are below)
	  therefore don't try to make this determination; the only
	  requirement is that there be a ".git" directory
	- not all layers (yet!) contain a "MAINTAINERS" file, therefore be
	  able to work without one
	- add all the patch tags specified in
	  http://www.linuxfoundation.org/content/54-patch-formatting
	- remove Linux kernel-specific wording/references

Hi Otavio,

Thanks for taking a look at my patch.

To be honest I don't have much experience with perl, this script is in
perl simply because that's the way it comes to us from the Linux kernel
(although I was able to understand enough of it to be able to make the
changes required so it would fit into this project). I'm quite sure,
with StackOverflow by my side, I'd be more than able to make these
changes :-)

However... the MAINTAINERS syntax[1] does allow for "F", "N", "X", and
"K" clauses, to wit:

	F: Files and directories with wildcard patterns.
	   A trailing slash includes all files and subdirectory files.
	   F:	drivers/net/	all files in and below drivers/net
	   F:	drivers/net/*	all files in drivers/net, but not below
	   F:	*/net/*		all files in "any top level directory"/net
	   One pattern per line.  Multiple F: lines acceptable.
	N: Files and directories with regex patterns.
	   N:	[^a-z]tegra	all files whose path contains the word tegra
	   One pattern per line.  Multiple N: lines acceptable.
	   scripts/get_maintainer.pl has different behavior for files that
	   match F: pattern and matches of N: patterns.  By default,
	   get_maintainer will not look at git log history when an F: pattern
	   match occurs.  When an N: match occurs, git log history is used
	   to also notify the people that have git commit signatures.
	X: Files and directories that are NOT maintained, same rules as F:
	   Files exclusions are tested before file matches.
	   Can be useful for excluding a specific subdirectory, for instance:
	   F:	net/
	   X:	net/ipv6/
	   matches all files in and below net excluding net/ipv6/
	K: Keyword perl extended regex pattern to match content in a
	   patch or file.  For instance:
	   K: of_get_profile
	      matches patches or files that contain "of_get_profile"
	   K: \b(printk|pr_(info|err))\b
	      matches patches or files that contain one or more of the words
	      printk, pr_info or pr_err
	   One regex pattern per line.  Multiple K: lines acceptable.


As you can see, use of these clauses would cover your use case.

What I was hoping for is that this script would be added to the project,
then I could go about creating MAINTAINERS files for the various layers
which would incorporate the information to which you referred above in a
more standard, cross-project way. If you feel strongly about keeping the
maintainers information in these files and this is the only thing
holding up the script's inclusion I'd be happy to make the necessary
modifications. But personally I'd prefer to use the existing MAINTAINERS
syntax instead.

Would moving that information into a standard top-level MAINTAINERS file
suffice? Is there a reason it needs to be in those files (perhaps some
other tool is processing them that couldn't be switched to process a
MAINTAINERS file instead)?

Best regards,
    Trevor

+        or use only ${signature_pattern} signers (default: $email_git_all_signature_types)
+    --git-fallback => use git when no exact MAINTAINERS pattern (default: $email_git_fallback)
+    --git-oe-chiefs => include ${oe_chiefs}
+    --git-min-signatures => number of signatures required (default: $email_git_min_signatures)
+    --git-max-maintainers => maximum maintainers to add (default: $email_git_max_maintainers)
+    --git-min-percent => minimum percentage of commits required (default: $email_git_min_percent)
+    --git-blame => use git blame to find modified commits for patch or file
+    --git-since => git history to use (default: $email_git_since)
+    --hg-since => hg history to use (default: $email_hg_since)
+    --interactive => display a menu (mostly useful if used with the --git option)
+    --m => include maintainer(s) if any
+    --n => include name 'Full Name <addr\@domain.tld>'
+    --l => include list(s) if any
+    --s => include subscriber only list(s) if any

+  --status => print status if any
+  --subsystem => print subsystem name if any
+  --web => print website(s) if any
+
+Output type options:
+  --separator [, ] => separator for multiple entries on 1 line
+    using --separator also sets --nomultiline if --separator is not [, ]
+  --multiline => print 1 entry per line
+
+Other options:
+  --pattern-depth => Number of pattern directory traversals (default: 0 (all))
+  --keywords => scan patch for keywords (default: $keywords)
+  --sections => print all of the subsystem sections with pattern matches
+  --mailmap => use .mailmap file (default: $email_use_mailmap)
+  --version => show version
+  --help => show this help information
+
+Default options:
+  [--email --nogit --git-fallback --m --n --l --multiline -pattern-depth=0
+   --remove-duplicates --rolestats]
+
+Notes:
+  Using "-f directory" may give unexpected results:
+      Used with "--git", git signators for _all_ files in and below
+          directory are examined as git recurses directories.
+          Any specified X: (exclude) pattern matches are _not_ ignored.
+      Used with "--nogit", directory is used as a pattern match,
+          no individual file within the directory or subdirectory
+          is matched.
+      Used with "--git-blame", does not iterate all files in directory
+  Using "--git-blame" is slow and may add old committers and authors
+      that are no longer active maintainers to the output.
+  Using "--roles" or "--rolestats" with git send-email --cc-cmd or any
+      other automated tools that expect only ["name"] <email address>
+      may not work because of additional output after <email address>.
+  Using "--rolestats" and "--git-blame" shows the #/total=% commits,
+      not the percentage of the entire file authored.  # of commits is
+      not a good measure of amount of code authored.  1 major commit may
+      contain a thousand lines, 5 trivial commits may modify a single line.
+  If git is not installed, but mercurial (hg) is installed and an .hg
+      repository exists, the following options apply to mercurial:
+          --git,
+          --git-min-signatures, --git-max-maintainers, --git-min-percent, and
+          --git-blame
+      Use --hg-since not --git-since to control date selection
+  File ".get_maintainer.conf", if it exists in the source
+      directory, can change whatever get_maintainer defaults are desired.
+      Entries in this file can be any command line argument.
+      This file is prepended to any additional command line arguments.
