What 's wrong with you Loongson guys? Why do you always send patches 
with the same functions as the original author withou any communication 
with the original author? Especially the original author of the patch is 
the maintainer of Loongson64 architecture.

In the past year, Loongson employees have been very active. This is a 
happy thing, but at the same time, it is confusing that, in addition to 
always sending patches that others have already sent, many patches send 
by Loongson employees often with only a few lines (less than 10 lines). 
I don't think this is a normal phenomenon, is this caused by any other 
factors? Such as KPIs? If the patches are submitted for this purpose, it 
is not advisable, this behavior will harm the entire Loongson.
