Because the current version is v6.17 (not -rc), we're in what's
deceptively called a "merge window". This is when Linus Torvalds merges
pull requests from maintainers downstream of him.

Your patches go through the trees of these maintainers, in this case:
qcom-arm64-dts via Bjorn Andersson
	-> soc-arm64-dts via Arnd Bergmann
		-> torvalds/master via Linus Torvalds

Maintainers generally refrain from accepting non-urgent changes until
Torvalds tags the next -rc1 release (v6.18-rc1 in this case), after
which they start picking up changes again.

After your patches are picked up, they show up in linux-next, which
is notably a release ahead of torvalds/master (i.e. it previews the
'next' release), so if your patch gets merged when 6.18-rc1 is the
newest, it will show up in v6.19.

Another note is that -rcs are tagged weekly, and maintainers are
reluctant to accept big changes at about -rc5, since they need
time for CIs, build bots and users to test.

A cycle normally includes 7-8 release candidate revisions.
