There hasn't been any serious movement on getting you your home directory for several reasons: 1) You haven't asked for your account to be reinstated on kernel.org. I have no record of you having ever sent in a gpg key at all, let alone one that's been signed so we can verify you and your request 2) Without a gpg key so we can verify you and your request, we can't encrypt your home dir and get it to you. 3) You asked hpa directly and not ftpadmin@kernel.org > As far as I know, "eventually" hasn't happened yet.
