You don't need to send a pull request yourself.  Once your patch is
reviewed it should be merged by a maintainer.

Contributors send patches to qemu-devel.  After the patches are reviewed
they are merged either directly into qemu.git or into a subsystem tree
by a maintainer.

Subsystem maintainers send pull requests to flush their patch queue when
they feel it is appropriate.  For example, Kevin and I send a weekly
block layer pull request that usually contains 5-15 patches.

Expect 1.5 weeks to get the average patch reviewed and merged into
qemu.git.  If you're lucky they can be merged in a day.  If you're
unlucky you may have to ping the list to move the process along.
