Is my expectation wrong, or is the commit missing? That commit is in wireless-next and the first release having it should be v6.2-rc1, if all goes well. So the patch is not lost. We need to get -next patches ready before the merge window opens, so it takes quite some time before patches go to an actual release. For example, the estimation for the v6.2 merge window to start is on 2022-12-11. This means that wireless patches should be submitted by latest 2022-12-05 to make the deadline, and even that's risky. The estimation for the final v6.2 release is 2023-02-19: https://phb-crystal-ball.sipsolutions.net/ So we can easily talk about 3-10 weeks delays before a -next patch is in an -rc release, depending on what part of the release cycle we are. -- https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/list/ https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/developers/documentation/submittingpatches
