It is probably due to the tree declaration, assuming you are actually
using the correct tree.

It varies by subsystem. ARM SoC tends to close around a week before
the merge window opens. netdev sees some patches accepted one or two
days after the merge window opens, but you should not assume patches
will be accepted that late. Also, you should submit patches earlier,
rather than later. They get more testing that way, you have time to
fix issues etc.

You need to resubmit.
