The problem with this patch is that some files were with no git tree in
MAINTAINERS on purpose: some files are maintained in the main repository,
but we leave subtrees touch them like release notes or makefile/meson
files.

So reverting it, and adding a comment to document the reason.

Applied, thanks

The solution is better specifying trees in MAINTAINERS
for components which must not be changed in a sub-tree.
Will merge your patches adding such info.
