Joe, I found these five list entries with inconsistent remarks:

- linux-usb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:
- Patch: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200912121346.2796-1-lukas.bulwahn@xxxxxxxxx/ (the patch here)

- linux-aspeed@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:
- Patch: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200912183334.22683-1-lukas.bulwahn@xxxxxxxxx/

- linux-mediatek@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:
- Patch: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200914053110.23286-1-lukas.bulwahn@xxxxxxxxx/
- initial patch here was wrong.
- waiting for somebody to confirm that it is not moderated to then
send the correct patch.

- linux-samsung-soc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:
- Patch: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200914061353.17535-1-lukas.bulwahn@xxxxxxxxx/

- linux-arm-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:
- by 'majority vote' (131 vs. 27), it is probably moderated.
- no patch sent yet; patch will follow once the others are accepted.

Then, more patches on adding 'exploders for non-subscribers' remarks will
follow.
