Please just make a patch with it, and post it to lkml and CC Linus and Andrew Morton. Repost a month later if no one picked it up.
I think that 'git log' should really consider the .mailmap by default. Otherwise what's the point? The only time when .mailmap should not be considered is when using --pretty=raw or when explicitly told not to.
