So far I have seen more and more false-positives from this "tool" of
your group that I am very inclined to just tell all kernel maintainers
to ignore them for a very long time as you are not following the
documented rules for such patches as outlined in
Documentation/process/researcher-guidelines.rst

Please read that and fix your tool, and your submission process, I've
said this many times already.

There might be a lot of definitions of what "research" actually is.
I realize that the maintainers may be very busy, but is it completely
illegal to sent a patch just to raise the flag and ask to share an
expertise? Note this was not a private e-mail, and it looks a bit
strange to treat it just like an attempt to waste your personal time.
And don't you think that such a policy definitely cuts off the
beginners and makes the community less friendly?
