My past experience is that the Fedora kernel maintainers are responsive and
helpful to an appropriate degree.  Good bug reports get good responses,
vague or ambiguous ones get a response that helps clarify, problems where
other components are involved get redirected.

If a bug gets CLOSED UPSTREAM I'd say there's a very high probability that
the issue is actually under development or has already dealt with. Upstream
might have dealt with the issue in a way that's different from the approach
in your patch - that doesn't mean your bug is dismissed offhand or that
submitting your patch isn't appreciated.
