We've discussed it with Sima yesterday, and I think we would even need the extra check in dim to make sure that a committer shouldn't do that without dim complaining. Sima played a bit with it, and it should be doable to get something fairly reliable if you use get_maintainers.pl to retrieve the git tree (through scripts/get_maintainer.pl --no-email --no-l --scm) and figuring out if only drm.git, drm-intel.git or drm-misc.git is involved. If it isn't, then we should check that there's the ack of one of the maintainers. Could you write a patch to do so? Thanks!
