Please stop spamming!
From: Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst
Don't get discouraged - or impatient
------------------------------------
After you have submitted your change, be patient and wait. Reviewers are
busy people and may not get to your patch right away.
Once upon a time, patches used to disappear into the void without comment,
but the development process works more smoothly than that now. You should
receive comments within a week or so; if that does not happen, make sure
that you have sent your patches to the right place. Wait for a minimum of
one week before resubmitting or pinging reviewers - possibly longer during
busy times like merge windows.
Pls read the documentation about how you should work with the community:
Documentation/process/
while you're waiting for review.
