Hi there,
I tried to submit a patch to the radiotap dissector. So I filed a bug
and attached my patch a few days ago. The link is here:
https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4283

I haven't seen any response yet, so I want to check whether I'm
following a correct procedure and how long a procedure would take.

That's the right procedure. But (as you might be able to tell from looking at the list of not-yet-reviewed patches) there's a significant backlog relative to the amount of spare time the core developers have.
