Is it against the rule of commit fest to add such a status patch
into review-queue? If so, I would aim for 8.5. Otherwise,
I will deal with the problems also during commit fest.
What is your opinion?

You can add work-in-progress patches and even just design docs to the commitfest queue. That's perfectly OK. They will be reviewed as any other work, but naturally if it's not a patch that's ready to be committed without major work, it won't be committed.

I haven't looked at the patch yet, but if you think there's chances to get it into shape for inclusion to 8.4, before the commit fest is over, you can and should keep working on it and submit updated patches during the commit fest. However, help with reviewing other patches would also be very much appreciated. The idea of commitfests is that everyone stops working on their own stuff, except for cleaning up and responding to review comments on one's own patches that are in the queue, and helps to review other people's patches.
