So the subject says it all. It's been two weeks(+a day), and 3.3-rc1 is now out.

There are a couple of trees I haven't merged on purpose, and there may
be a few trees I overlooked by mistake. The "on purpose" ones were
things that looked unfamiliar and I felt I didn't have the bandwidth
to check. The "mistake" ones would just be things I missed due to
being busy.
Is the HSI framework pull on the "on purpose" list ?

https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/13/116

Several people have shown interest for this to be integrated in the
kernel to help development.The framework is already in use in Nokia
products like N9.
We (ST-Ericsson) also use this framework and we have a driver
for it in the works and submitted to the list at one time I think.
I am sorry if I have not ACK:ed all patches but I have my ack on
the big one.

That said I suspect it mightn't have been pulled because
Torvalds cannot verify who you are, and/or that there is no signed
tag on it? GPG keys are getting mandatory, though it's sad if it's
becoming a barrier to entry.
There is a signed tag (hsi_for_3.3), but said it so is true that my key
was signed only by one person. Today I've managed to meet Artem
Bityutskiy and he has now also signed the key. However, It is my
understanding that's not enough :(

I guess there is also the issue of the Reviewed and Acked tags.
Currently the commits only have your Acked for the framework.

I guess I can add also Alan Cox Acked-by tag to patch set, but I have
forgotten to add it to the commit logs :(
