But that's not really the goal, is it?  ISTM what you want to do is
identify patches that we're not going to try to get into v15, and
then push them out to the next CF so that we don't spend more time
on them this month.  But that determination should not preclude them
from being looked at on the normal basis once the next CF arrives.
So I'd say just push them forward with status "Needs review" or
"Waiting on author", whichever seems more appropriate.

If a patch seems to have stalled to the point where neither of
those statuses is appropriate, then closing it RWF would be the
thing to do; but that's not special to the last-CF situation.
