ping

Please don't send content free pings and please allow a reasonable time
for review. People get busy, go on holiday, attend conferences and so
on so unless there is some reason for urgency (like critical bug fixes)
please allow at least a couple of weeks for review. If there have been
review comments then people may be waiting for those to be addressed.

Sending content free pings adds to the mail volume (if they are seen at
all) which is often the problem and since they can't be reviewed
directly if something has gone wrong you'll have to resend the patches
anyway, so sending again is generally a better approach though there are
some other maintainers who like them - if in doubt look at how patches
for the subsystem are normally handled.

Please don't top post, reply in line with needed context. This allows
readers to readily follow the flow of conversation and understand what
you are talking about and also helps ensure that everything in the
discussion is being addressed.

I understand people are busy, but I also see community sent patches being treated with low priority, or being silently ignored too often lately, but lets not go into that.

I sent that RFC patch on 20.12.2024, today is 13.10.2025 - if this is not a reasonable time, well, what is? By the same time I sent 2 other patches and they are already in -next. In the meanwhile I see patches sent in the morning to be reviewed till the end of the day - not critical bugfixes patches but new functionality.

Also, I don't understand how the ping was content free, given that it was on top of the original patch, unless I don't get what "content free" is supposed to mean, possible, I am not native English speaker.
