Aloka's original email (with the patch) had the id:

Message-ID: <010101747ee4b989-1d670a2f-a032-4f64-aa65-3847a5951522-000000@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

But Johannes' reply referenced different id:

In-Reply-To: <010101747ee4b985-86863ec8-33e2-4f78-9d9b-93110bfa29fc-000000@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
References: <010101747ee4b985-86863ec8-33e2-4f78-9d9b-93110bfa29fc-000000@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

And this is why patchwork cannot detect that the replies are to Aloka's
patch. I suspect smtp.codeaurora.org is to blame here, I have seen it
messing with message ids before so this would not be the first time this
is happening.
