The process for "wtf did Andrew do with my patch" is to look in
http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/series (which I update around 5PM PST on
US weekdays) and find the patch.
Today you'll see
#NEXT_PATCHES_START mainline-urgent
proc-fix-esrch-error-when-writing-to-proc-pid-coredump_filter.patch
mm-zswap-change-incorrect-strncmp-use-to-strcmp.patch
include-linux-mmdebugh-should-include-linux-bugh.patch
so yup, it's head-of-queue and I'll send it Linuswards probably
tomorrow. Or maybe today.

It helps a lot when commit messages explain the seriousness/impact of
the bug. But fixes for build errors are so self-explanatory, even I can
understand them ;)
