It seems that your name still is "akolli at codeaurora.org" in the
Submitter field:

https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10353959/

An example how it should look like:

https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10359823/

I think you need to contact helpdesk now and ask them to fix it.

No need to resend because of this.
