        F: Files and directories with wildcard patterns.
           A trailing slash includes all files and subdirectory files.
           F:   drivers/net/    all files in and below drivers/net
           F:   drivers/net/*   all files in drivers/net, but not below
           F:   */net/*         all files in "any top level directory"/net
           One pattern per line.  Multiple F: lines acceptable.

So this pattern with the trailing /* matches only:

drivers/net/ethernet/hisilicon/Kconfig
drivers/net/ethernet/hisilicon/Makefile
drivers/net/ethernet/hisilicon/hip04_eth.c
drivers/net/ethernet/hisilicon/hix5hd2_gmac.c

and not any file in drivers/net/ethernet/hisilicon/hns/

Is that what you want?

We will maintain all files in hisilicon and any directory below it.
will fix it in next submit.

Thanks

using

F:      drivers/net/ethernet/hisilicon/

matches all files in hisilicon and any directory below it.
