At least wait until the merge window is over if it's not a fix, or keep an
eye on the relevant branches (see below).

No, but I pick patches up on my iommu/devel branch here:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/will/linux.git/

and at some point they appear on for-joerg/arm-smmu/updates, which I send
to Joerg (who is the iommu maintainer). He then puts them into linux-next
before they get sent for inclusion in mainline during the next merge window.
