I don't rely on my memory and instead use patchwork for that:

https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/developers/documentation/submittingpatches#checking_state_of_patches_from_patchwork

And the patch you are referring is in state 'New':

https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/patch/20240219111417.1185-1-quic_lingbok@xxxxxxxxxxx/

So it is in the queue, please just wait patiently.

And as general comment to all Qualcomm engineers (not just Lingbo): if
you want patches reviewed and applied faster then help Jeff and me!
Review other patches, test our drivers and stack, investigate bug
reports, make sure all firmware releases are uploaded etc. There is so
much to do. Don't just throw patches over the wall and disappear.
