That's I only pushed it out Friday night (US/Eastern), and Stephen Rothwell creates new linux-next release based on snapshots taken Monday through Friday in the Morning (AU/Canberra time).
Things have been crazy busy, so a last set of ext4 backports only happened Friday starting around 10pm localtime. (Yes, I have no life.)

I did add a Fixes tag in what is in the ext4 tree. I don't always mention when I've rewritten since that requries manual editing of the "b4 ty" generated acknowledgement.
In the ideal world when I rewrite the one-line snapshot, at the *very* least it should show up in the Applied/thanks. Maybe something like this:
[1/1] ext4: change variable "count" to signed integer commit: fefb759df063599ad483422eb07ef8e14c612cc2 rewritten summary: ext4: make variable "count" signed
... and if the commit description is rewritten, maybe the "b4 ty" e-mail should mention it. (Very often I end up rewriting commit descriptions, especially when the original poster's first language is not English.)
For the record, this is what is in the ext4 tree that I plan to push to Linus is:
commit fefb759df063599ad483422eb07ef8e14c612cc2 Author: Ding Xiang <dingxiang@cmss.chinamobile.com> Date: Mon May 30 18:00:47 2022 +0800
ext4: make variable "count" signed
Since dx_make_map() may return -EFSCORRUPTED now, so change "count" to be a signed integer so we can correct check for an error code returned by dx_make_map().
