I'm confused because you speak of *dropping* this patch (v1) -- but v1 was never
picked up AFAIK.

You picked up v5 on March 29:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10869519/

I see it in linux-next as 915347f67d41857a514bed77053b212f3696e8a3

Will Bjorn send it to LT during the merge window for 5.2?

Regards.
