I think you've forgotten, you didn't read the email from the patch
system, or the "Regression in 5.3-rc1 and later" email thread on the
mailing lists.

  https://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/viewpatch.php?id=8868/1
  https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/faaa3843-09a6-1a21-3448-072eeed1ea00@googlemail.com/

Basically, I couldn't merge for the last merge window without causing
a regression, so it's delayed until the next merge window.

Thanks.
