The script does get some useful information out of git (but obviously
also some questionable).

--roles and --rolestats give away some more data...

$ scripts/get_maintainer.pl --rolestats -f fs/eventpoll.c

...but still don't distinguish between signed-off-by or reviewed-by on
one hand, and reported-by and tested-by on the other hand.  Cc'ing a
reporter or tester would only make sense if the patch changes something
that directly affects the reporter's/ tester's setup, e.g. reworks a
provisional fix.
