You need to:
1. Specify the target branch in the subject prefix ([PATCH net]
for critical fixes, [PATCH net-next] for features and misc
non-critical fixes and improvements).
2. If this is a fix targeting "net", you need to provide a "Fixes:"
tag pointing to the commit which introduced this issue.
3. If this is a fix and the bug is present in older supported kernels
(LTSes etc), you need to add "Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" right
after the "Fixes:" tag.

The fix itself looks ok.
