That's my mistake, I added it in response to Sashiko review feedback on
v3 but thought it was just for documentation purposes, I didn't realize
the tag would cause it to get backported since I only submitted to
net-next. Sorry about that, will wait to hear from Jakub/Paolo before
sending any new versions.
