By giving it 30 seconds of intensive thinking, I am sure you could figure
this out by yourself, considering you already provided the if (-f ***)
{...} trick.

Since the http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_rewrite_module.html#if'if'
directive works in server blocks, you could enclose the rewrite rule in it
to only apply 'maintenance mode' based on the presence (or the absence?) of
a specific file.

Please come back to tell us if it worked as intended/expected... or what
had to be corrected/added! :o)​
