b4 development is mainly done via email on the tools@...ux.kernel.org
list, and https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/b4/b4.git rather than that
github repository (note that yours is the first and only pull
request there) is the main repo.  I suspect that github repo is
just an automatically maintained mirror and nobody's seen your
pull request, you'd be much more likely to get a response sending
your patches to the list CC Konstantin.
