Well bcachefs can't be merged until it is actually pushed upstream, and the author still have features and bugs to fix before he will do that, which in turn sounds wise.
ZFS in mainline can only happen if either Linux or ZFS change license, which is extremely unlikely. The OpenZFS guys would likely be willing to relicense their changes to the ZFS codebase in a GPLv2 compatible manner, but their code is derived from ZFS which is owned by Oracle, and as such it's pointless unless Oracle relicenses the original project.
