The patch subject is not quite correct.
You're adding patterns, not maintainers.

My preference is to keep these in alphabetic order.

Another option is a wildcard pattern match like:

F:	drivers/*/pm8???-*

instead of:

F:	drivers/gpio/pm8xxx-gpio.c
F:	drivers/mfd/pm8921-core.c
F:	drivers/mfd/pm8xxx-irq.c
F:	drivers/mfd/pm8xxx-mpp.c
