I don't think that this tone is warranted. Even if you would get an
ACK/rb for this patch you would not make it into the release. The review
was sent 24 seconds _after_ the release-candidate was tagged:

 Subject: Re: [libvirt] [PATCH v4 5/5] qemu: Introduce memoryBacking/discard

 tag v4.3.0-rc1
 TaggerDate: Thu Apr 26 14:56:34 2018 +0200

which was announced on the mailing list 15 minutes later.

 Subject: [libvirt] Entering freeze for libvirt-4.3.0

While I don't want to question your supernatural patch-fixing skill,
fixing the typos and the mailing list delay would easily consume the 15
minutes until the freeze was announced. And it could be even less than
that as the tag was probably pushed prior to sending the anouncement.
