Usually kernel maintainers are busy during the merge window with addressing
merge conflicts and with analyzing and fixing regressions. I don't know any
maintainer who accepts new patches during the merge window. Most maintainers
get irritated if patches that are posted during the merge window and ignore
such patches.
