The USB stack has no overall maintainer, but there are several
committers on that list who may well pick up the patch and commit it.
We're currently running with two USB stacks in parallel, however, and
I'm not exactly sure how they are handling this.  It may be that your
patch takes a little while to be committed, while the new stack settles
in.
