It doesn't matter really, not worth another patch :-)

No worries, should be fixed now. I preferred previously filtering by
full name, rather than email address as I send patches from both work
and home emails, but also sometimes people send patches/questions to
emails from the companies I previously worked for, regardless .mailmap
entries.

Probably, they look for author in lkml/mail archive, rather than use git
to get the current/proper email address.

Thanks,
