It seems I interpreted the requirements for Reported-By: tags rather
strictly. We might change the documentation to discourage that
interpretation. (Greg, is it too late to add this tag in your queue?)

My experience is that one can easily get stuck when trying to fix all
issues of a certain, broad category. Fixing all (say) all unused Kconfig
symbols is a big job. Fixing all that got added in v3.14-rc1 is doable
(depending on the amount of time one wants to spend).
Anyhow, I do hope you find time to send in patches yourself. Perhaps it
would help if we'd coordinate the stuff a bit. Richard seems keen to
help too.
