Just that maintainers aren't necessarily appliers.

I don't think it's necessary.
get_maintainers already shows that via the
NETWORKING DRIVERS section F: drivers/net/

Maybe adding
	W:	http://www.linux-usb.org/usbnet
might be useful, but it seems pretty out of date.

btw: This is a similar section to what I suggested.
     No named "maintainer"
