It hasn't been merged in mainline yet, only in the xhci tree:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mnyman/xhci.git/commit/?id=feb0b04b09c82589af65c84398b7d3fefaa7b7ac&head=for-usb-linus
Should I add the commit id from there? Or add the lore link?

Sorry, I'm not sure how to answer that properly.
It looks like most ADL-N support was added starting from 5.16.
The issue it fixes is a ~20s boot delay in the specific case of booting from S5.
It probably makes sense for it to go wherever the ADL-P patch goes.
