While I realize what you say matches what the description of M: says in ./MAINTAINERS, I'm afraid we also assign the meaning of "is the maintainer of" to it, i.e. L: is not a suitable equivalent (at least I don't think a list can reasonably be considered a "maintainer"). It should perhaps rather be R: the have this meaning. As a side note, in addition I notice that M: says to mail patches _to_ the listed people, which contradicts information on e.g. the wiki where people are asked to send patches _to_ the list, with maintainers _cc_-ed (personally I prefer the latter very much).
