Keyboard fix in 6.1 kernel --- maybe - sandspur - 12-12-2022

Linux 6.1 kernel is supposed to have features accomodating the Pine Phone keyboard:

"Also, the PinePhone Pro is now able to run off the mainline Linux 6.1 kernel, as can a suite of older Android smartphones including the Sony Xperia 1 IV, and the Samsung Galaxy E5, E7, and Grand Max. Additionally, there’s now an input driver for the PinePhone keyboard case."

Any rough guesses how long it may be before mere users like me might see an update or new build of one or more OSes?
