Well at least please reply letting people know what's happening with it.

Ask me to merge it and remind me that it's needed in -stable.  Or just
send the thing to Linus and -stable immediately.  Copy me and I'll do
the usual merge-it-in-case-linus-misses-it trick.

That would work, as long as we know that the patch is firmly on the
mainline and -stable paths.
