If I thought the change was too high risk or not severe enough to justify a SRU, I would probably leave a note, but I wouldn't change the status, because I think it is the SRU team that ultimately decides.
I would change the development task back to Confirmed if the original fix never worked in the first place. If there was an error with the patch, I would leave a note and try to fix it if I could. Status to Triaged if everything looked good. If the process wasn't followed correctly or there was information missing, I would try to fix it up and add the necessary test case or whatever is needed.
