Please take note and follow the kernel release cycle.

These patches were sent after the release of -rc7 i.e. very late
in the release cycle and a point where most kernel maintainers stop
reviewing/applying patches and start to prepare for the impending
merge-window.

Also, there is no such thing as a gentle ping.  If you genuinely think
your patches have unlikely("slipped though the gaps"), then post a
[RESEND] complete with a note alluding your reasons doing such.
