Oh, this is making me worry. I do see Johannes' reply on the list:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-wireless/1cc7242cd00cd5141a56f17a7f5c80700485aa39.camel@sipsolutions.net/

But like you said, there's still nothing on the patchwork (even after 23h):

https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11769643/

I hope this is just a temporary glitch, but if this happens again please
do let me know about any patchwork problems. It will create major
problems for us if patchwork starts losing mail.
