What's up with this patch? I haven't received any comment, nor has it
appeared in your git repository.

Dave hasn't taken it because it is a regression fix for i915 and the
current procedure is for those to go through Eric's tree. Eric has been
busy working on a new compiler for GLSL the last few weeks and has been
applying patches in batches.

The patch I am happy to ack, but since I introduced the regression
[https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16294], I'd rather have
someone more familiar with the intricacies of G33/G35/Q35 review it.

For what is worth:

The events that reminded me to look up the status of this patch were the i915 regression fixes that recently appeared in git-commits-head@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx from Dave's tree (which appears to be contrary to the current procedure mentioned above).
