Maybe auto-generating isn't the best solution? Wait until you need to
post a link to https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/, and
get_maintainers.pl will draw in all the BPF maintainers for you...
The union appears when you run get_maintainer.pl on multiple patch
files. I typically run get_maintainer.pl on *.patch, and adjust the
git-send-email list from there.

Thanks, I set that up, it's syncing right now, I'm also going to compare
the size of the git tree vs the maildir I currently have.
