Is this in your review queue? Stephen has given his "Reviewed-by", in case you are waiting for his ack.
Please don't send content free pings and please allow a reasonable time for review. People get busy, go on holiday, attend conferences and so on so unless there is some reason for urgency (like critical bug fixes) please allow at least a couple of weeks for review. If there have been review comments then people may be waiting for those to be addressed.
Sending content free pings adds to the mail volume (if they are seen at all) which is often the problem and since they can't be reviewed directly if something has gone wrong you'll have to resend the patches anyway, though there are some other maintainers who like them - if in doubt look at how patches for the subsystem are normally handled.
