Do not worry, it is not lost :)

The author of the patch would normally send a ping. If you are
curious, please see Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst for
some guidelines.

In short, the authors would wait at least a week, and they would apply
their best judgment (e.g. whether the merge window is going on,
whether it is a new feature or a critical fix, whether
feedback/comments/tags are still coming, etc.).

Cheers,
Miguel
