What that document doesn't explain is when the branch gets cut off for the upcoming release, and how backporting works during the alpha/beta/RC phase. There's a roadmap document in the wiki [1] which indicates that your PR got merged after the alpha release, which means in order to be included in 2.2, it would have had to be backported. The timing is really unfortunate there, since you missed the freeze by just a couple of weeks, but at least you can be sure that it will land in the next major release. I also suppose asking explicitly for a backport at the time could have helped, but it's probably too late for that now.
