When searching for inactive maintainers it's useful to filter out mailing list addresses. Such "maintainers" will obviously never feature in a "From:" line of an email or a review tag. Since "L:" entries only provide the address of a mailing list without a fancy name extend this pattern to "M:" entries. Alternatively we could reserve M: entries for humans only and move the fake "maintainers" to L:. While I'd personally prefer to reserve M: for humans only, I'm not 100% that's a great choice either, given most L: entries are in fact open mailing lists with public archives.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
