I don't know anything about your "maintainer" or "developer" policies.
The Linux-kernel sources have a MAINTAINERS file and a script to list
all involved maintainers in a certain area.

manager or maintainer of stable GIT branches.
Where can someone find such informations about your pushing and
maintainer policies?

This patch by Chris was no "cosmetic" one.
I build my Linux graphics stack with LLVM/Clang and fell over it when
compiling intel-ddx.
Chris was so kind to analyse and provide a patch for the issue.
"Fix spacing in XORG_TESTSET_CFLAG" [1] can be seen as a cosmetic change.
