As far as I know Brian is right, the patrol status in recentchanges is not public. However, the patrol log <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Log/patrol> is, so with a bit of effort you should be able to mostly reconstruct whether a revision is patrolled or not. (I thought about reporting this as a [very minor] security bug when I noticed it some months ago, but according to Phabricator people seem to be well aware of this. I’m not sure why we don’t make the patrol status public on recentchanges, to be honest.)
