Different subsystems and drivers have different preferences for where to file bugs and what information to include. Add "B:" entry for specifying the URI for the bug tracker directly, a web page for detailed info on filing bugs, or a mailto: URI.

Dust settled since the last time, maybe we can make URI work?

fwiw I want this, I think documenting bugzilla and irc channels (for subsystems and drivers using them) will help a lot to make (sub)communities of the kernel more approachable. On the entire series:

-- 2.1.4

Jani Nikula proposes patches to add a few new letter prefixes for "B:" bug reporting and "C:" maintainer chatting to the various sections of MAINTAINERS.

Add a generic mechanism to get_maintainer.pl to find sections that have any combination of "[A-Z]" letter prefix types in a section.
