I've added the kbuild list because I think you have a point.

It's the kbuild template which suggests adding the Reported-by tags but
you're right that it's not really appropriate for patches that haven't

where a maintainer insisted that someone add a Suggested-by tag and I
don't think that's appropriate either.
