Should the compatibility status mandate some percentage of patches are not in Pending state? The later checks could at least report the percentage of patches in pending state?

I hadn't thought to that level of details.

yes, I think a percent of patches with no 'Upsteam-Status" and with status may be a good first step.

I am not sure about mandating a percentage. I am thinking of a BSP layer with an EOL kernel having patches that have no where to go but a form of the patch may have been accepted in a later.  I think its more important to have the data to allow a deep dive into the areas of concern.

Having an "Upstream-Status" in patches is being considered an additional Yocto Compatible requirement.

Since we now show the warnings in yocto-check-layer, I think we can resolve this, thanks for the patch!
