If you check patchwork using the Message-id of the individual patches (not the
cover letter) you'll see the status is Under Review which means it is under
active review. For example:

https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/patch/20260916060325.854-2-kang.yang@oss.qualcomm.com/

Patches transition to that state when they are placed in my pending branch.

For best results when using patchwork you'll need to create an account and log
in since anonymous access has been severely restricted due to abuse by LLM
scraping robots.
