The patch titled
     Subject: get_maintainer: Don't check if STDIN exists in a VCS repository
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     get_maintainer-dont-check-if-stdin-exists-in-a-vcs-repository.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

From: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com>
Subject: get_maintainer: Don't check if STDIN exists in a VCS repository

If get_maintainer is not given any filename arguments on the command line,
the standard input is read for a patch.

But checking if a VCS has a file named &STDIN is not a good idea and fails.

Verify the nominal input file is not &STDIN before checking the VCS.
