That already exists though I don't understand the
specific requirement here

--nom --nol --nor

from
$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --help
[]
    --m => include maintainer(s) if any
    --r => include reviewer(s) if any
    --n => include name 'Full Name <[email protected]>'
    --l => include list(s) if any
[]
   Most options have both positive and negative forms.
      The negative forms for --<foo> are --no<foo> and --no-<foo>.
