One detail regarding the process: you should have clarified your
expectations, i.e. the patch should have explicitly been generated with
git send-email --subject-prefix='PATCH v2 net-next' since it is not
targeting the 'net.git' tree for bug fixes on the master branch (which
are also backported to stable trees), but rather will be included in the
pull request for the upcoming 6.3 kernel.
