Joe Perches 6f7d98ec44 get_maintainer: Prepare for separate MAINTAINERS files
Allow for MAINTAINERS to become a directory and if it is,
read all the files in the directory for maintained sections.

Optionally look for all files named MAINTAINERS in directories
excluding the .git directory by using --find-maintainer-files.

This optional feature adds ~.3 seconds of CPU on an Intel
i5-6200 with an SSD.

Miscellanea:

 - Create a read_maintainer_file subroutine from the existing code
 - Test only the existence of MAINTAINERS, not whether it's a file

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
