It is still in my "to apply" queue.  Due to everyone loving to sneak in
fixes into -rc1 instead of getting them to Linus sooner for -final, the
queue is huge at this point in time with over 200+ remaining for me to
go through.  Add to that the general mess of the DRM tree when it comes
to stable patches for -rc1 (most are duplicates of what is already in
older stable releases), I wait until I have processed _EVERYTHING_ else
before even looking at DRM patches for stable during this time period.

So don't worry, it's not lost, just give us a week or two more to catch
up and please work to try to get fixes into -final whenever possible and
not wait for the huge -rc1 merge for issues that are more urgent.
