[llvm-dev] Anyone doing code reviews via mailing lists?

As an interesting coincidence and data point, my sony.com email just got
CC'ed to a new patch request, posted directly on llvm-commits. I'm guessing
the email  actually bounced or got stuck in some sort of moderation queue,
as I haven't seen it appear in the archives to link to it directly. Anyway,
it appears the user didn't know about Phabricator being the preferred
method (not helped due to the previously mentioned documentation no doubt),
so I've pointed them at it, along with the relevant llvm.org pages to help
them out.

(+1 to the side point of switching entirely to Phabricator reviews by the
way)
