In my experience, too many files are not covered by MAINTAINERS. scripts/get_maintainer.pl falls back to git then, unless you say --no-git-fallback.

I'll post the obvious patch, please raise your objections there.
In many cases it annoys recipients. In other cases, the top 1-2 results are actually a good match for a prospective maintainer. I suspect this is the case for most tests, in fact.
