Fixes: 91b56d8462a9 ("net/mlx5: improve some comments")

Please re-spin and submit to net-next once net-next re-opens,
avoid referencing the above commit since this patch is a stand

and has nothing to do with that patch.. just have a stand alone
commit
message explaining the space fix.
Sorry for my late reply. Because I'm a kernel newbie, I know nothing
about the basic methods and manners in the kernel development. Thanks
a lot for your patience on my mistake, pointing it out and fixing it
up.

Btw, did net-next re-open and did my changes get into the mainline?


Normally net-next closes once merge window is open at the end of
rc7/rc8 kernel cycle.

and reopens on the week of the kernel release, after the merge window
is closed (2 weeks after rc7/8 is closed).

you can use this link.

Oh... Thanks.

But it's more than 2 weeks since Linux 5.6 was released, so net-next
should be open now according to your words. But it's still closed.

Is my idea wrong? Does "kernel release" mean an -rc release or a formal
release?



Or just monitor netdev mailing list for an email announcement from
David Miller.

Thanks and welcome to the netdev family.
