If you mean the 'when tests?' patch, then I'd send it to 49412 <at> debbugs.gnu.org
to keep the libdrm patches together (maybe as a v2 patch series).  If you mean
‘updating mesa to 21.1.1x’, then I'd send that patch to guix-patches <at> gnu.org,
as updating 'mesa' seems much more complicated than only updating 'libdrm'
(see reply by John Kehayias).

There is some documentation in the chapter ‘16 Contributing’ in the manual
on the process (more specifically, the section ‘16.6 Submitting Patches’)
but it doesn't have much advice on when to split patch series ...

Greetings,
Maxime.
