The problem with this patch is that it changes the MAINTAINERS file itself.
The "guess" script works on the origin/master version of the file, not
after the patch is applied.
So the script will point at dpdk master anyway for the patch you
mentioned, since drivers/common are currently going through master.

I'd say those situations are rare and we must look carefully to set
the subtree when adding a new component.

I prepared a change for this.

The doc/ pattern is currently filtered out, if this is what you are
referring to.

I sent an update on MAINTAINERS, and I am about to send the change
that filters mk/, config/ and MAINTAINERS.

Can you give me a list of patchsets you think are problematic so that
I can test them?
Thanks.
