Please just drop all patches submitted by this email address and from
zte.com.cn at this point in time as we are unable to actually determine
that they are coming from the correct developers.

Also there's no feedback from them at all, which means no one is
actually reading the email it is being purported to be sent from, which
means it should be dropped no matter what anyway.
