[dpdk-ci] [PATCH] Revert "tools: fix tree detection for orphan files"

[David Marchand]

The problem with this patch is that some files were with no git tree in
MAINTAINERS on purpose: some files are maintained in the main repository,
but we leave subtrees touch them like release notes or makefile/meson
files.

So reverting it, and adding a comment to document the reason.
