When the merge window ends and linus' tree has moved to 3.20-rc1, the wireless-drivers-next will move to that -rc1 as well and pending/accepted patches will be applied for the next kernel release. If you are asking when they will be in linus' tree than the answer is 3.21-rc1. Now if you say this patch solves a real problem for you (providing usual proof like log with stack trace) you can request it to go on the wireless-drivers tree to be fixed for 3.20.

Yes. It will go into linux-next first, which you can consider to be an 
incubator where all stuff for the next release is integrated. Stuff will 
be added there until 4.0 is released. At that moment the merge window 
starts which moves all the stuff from linux-next into the mainline linux 
repo to prepare 4.1-rc1.

Now regarding your patch I have to give a heads up. Our pending patches 
have been applied by Kalle and includes similar fix.

Arend
