I think it can be done better.

FYI, this patch came about because I keep complaining about submitters
sending me patches I really shouldn't have to care about.

Here is the most recent offending command output:

  $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f drivers/i2c/busses/Kconfig
  Wolfram Sang <wsa@the-dreams.de> (maintainer:I2C SUBSYSTEM,commit_signer:26/26=100%,authored:3/26=12%,removed_lines:3/11=27%)

  linux-i2c@vger.kernel.org (open list:I2C SUBSYSTEM)
  linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org (open list)

Anyone south of Wolfram and north of the I2C ML is unlikely to care.

Please find a way to make this better.  For the sake of our sanity.
