Hi David,
I read through https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/networking/netdev-FAQ.html#q-how-often-do-changes-from-these-trees-make-it-to-the-mainline-linus-tree
and noticed http://vger.kernel.org/~davem/net-next.html.  Since the
merge window just opened, it sounds like I'll need to wait 2 weeks for
it to close before resending? Is that correct? Based on:

> IMPORTANT: Do not send new net-next content to netdev during the period during which net-next tree is closed.

Then based on the next section in the doc, it sounds like I was
missing which tree to put the patch in, in the subject? I believe
these patches should target net-next (not net) since they're not
addressing regressions from the most recent cycle.

Do I have all that right?
