I think it's just for people that use MAINTAINERS
by hand.

As far as I know, scripts/get_maintainer.pl is the
only script that parses MAINTAINERS.

This annotation doesn't change what lists are returned
by the script.

The script does filter lists with a "subscribers-only"
annotation from other lists and only includes them when
the command line argument "--s" is set.
