Who should pick this up?

$ scripts/get_maintainer.pl lib/this.patch says:
Andrew Morton <akpm@...ux-foundation.org> (commit_signer:8/56=14%)
"Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@...ux.vnet.ibm.com> (commit_signer:7/56=12%)
Ingo Molnar <mingo@...e.hu> (commit_signer:5/56=9%)
Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@...il.com> (commit_signer:5/56=9%)
Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@...otime.net> (commit_signer:3/56=5%)

Am I missing something?

thanks,
Daniel.
