You can check if it was merged in the maintainers' tree, if it is not
there then it is not merged :)

imho, I would prefer if you submitted it as a v2 with an explanation of
what changed since v1 (e.g. new commits) or even stating that nothing
has changed and you just regrouped it.
Or better, you could also not re-submit it and just point out that this
series depends on a previous commit (with a link to it).
