I can't take credit, this was actually someone's strategy for getting
their patches reviewed I heard about one time.

It's been on my wish list for checkpatch.pl do something like: "Commit
subject should begin $(git log --oneline $files | cut -d':' -f-3 |
sort | uniq -c | sort -nr | head -1)". Or maybe a git commit template
to fill in subject prefix and Cc list. The hard part is of course all
the corner cases such as touching multiple directories/files.
