David,

Do I need to re-submit this patch when the net-next gets opened for 
this? This is essentially a bug fix and can be applied to current 
version (v4.1) as well. The reason I thought of adding this to net-next 
is because the DTS patch set for enabling network driver on K2 devices
is queued for v4.2. But this has no dependency on this DTS patch and
hence can be applied to v4.1 as well if you are fine with it.
