Hi Abhijeet,

Please don't top-post on Kernel mailing lists.

I believe that your patch propagated into Linux's tree
(github.com/torvalds/linux/) within the last 24h.
And should be included in v6.5-rc1 and from there v6.5.

I would expect v6.5-rc1 to be released in approximately 10 days.
And v6.5 to be released in approximately 9 weeks.
