get_maintainer doesn't show it because it's subscriber-only.
If you want get_maintainer to show it, add -s

$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl  -s -f net/irda/
Samuel Ortiz <samuel@...tiz.org> (maintainer:IRDA SUBSYSTEM)
"David S. Miller" <davem@...emloft.net> (maintainer:NETWORKING [GENERAL])
irda-users@...ts.sourceforge.net (subscriber list:IRDA SUBSYSTEM)
netdev@...r.kernel.org (open list:IRDA SUBSYSTEM)
linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org (open list)
