Yep, this is one of the more confusing parts of the Linux development 
process for new folks (or at least was for me when I was new): you send 
a patch and it's not super clear what's going to happen to it for a 
while.  The merge window is generally a pretty hectic time, so stuff 
like this that's not fixing a bug or adding some frameware that other 
patches depend on can kind of get lost in the shuffle.

I always feel kind of bad for folks about that, but patchwork should 
help some here as at least we can get the smaller stuff called out.

This is on for-next, thanks!
