There isn't any particular urgency (at least until fg-kaslr patches try to make it 64MiB bigger), but it's unclear how long to wait before sending a reminder -- Documentation/process suggests that comments should be received in a week or so, pinging after 4 and 6 weeks seemed reasonable. If x86 has a longer queue, might be worth documenting that somewhere?
