Sure they are!

Our team development is very upstream targeted, i.e. we try to
submit all our changes upstream. But with Binutils we're lagging
behind upstream a bit because recently we made some significant reworks
and now catching up with upstream.

What's more my colleague Claudiu Zissulescu recently became
official Binutils maintainer for ARC, see
https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=commit;h=02d7a79e1b93240729a52246432d9a84583bcf82
so I expect less and less patches for ARC will be "pending".

Not sure though if that makes much sense.
