get_maintainer broken for a few entries in MAINTAINERS

Hello,

on v6.3 and v6.4-rc1 I experience:

	$ scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f drivers/gpu/drm/arm/display/komeda
	"James (Qian) Wang" <james.qian.wang@arm.com> (supporter:ARM KOMEDA DRM-KMS DRIVER)
	Liviu Dudau <liviu.dudau@arm.com> (supporter:ARM KOMEDA DRM-KMS DRIVER)
	Mihail Atanassov <mihail.atanassov@arm.com> (supporter:ARM KOMEDA DRM-KMS DRIVER)
	Brian Starkey <brian.starkey@arm.com> (supporter:ARM MALI-DP DRM DRIVER)
	David Airlie <airlied@gmail.com> (maintainer:DRM DRIVERS)
	Daniel Vetter <daniel@ffwll.ch> (maintainer:DRM DRIVERS)
	 (open list:ARM KOMEDA DRM-KMS DRIVER)
	dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org (open list:DRM DRIVERS)
	linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org (open list)

The 7th entry is broken. I didn't try to debug that in the script. Doing

-L:     Mali DP Maintainers <malidp@foss.arm.com>
+L:     malidp@foss.arm.com

(twice) in MAINTAINTERS fixes the output.

Best regards
Uwe

More like the entries in MAINTAINERS are broken.
L: entries should not have "names".

I suggest sending a patch to MAINTAINERS to remove the "names"
or change the non-conforming entries to "M:"

$ git grep -h "^L:" MAINTAINERS | \
  grep -v -P "^L:\s+[\w\_\.-]+@[\w_-]+\.\w+"
L:	Mali DP Maintainers <malidp@foss.arm.com>
L:	Mali DP Maintainers <malidp@foss.arm.com>
L:	The AWS Nitro Enclaves Team <aws-nitro-enclaves-devel@amazon.com>
