Re: [PATCH net-next] net-core: add rx_otherhost_dropped counter

[Brian Vazquez]

Hey Jeffrey,

Looking at it in patchwork
(https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/patch/20220301001153.1608374-1-jeffreyjilinux@xxxxxxxxx/),
it is complaining about kdoc.

Seems that you're missing the kdoc comment about rx_otherhost_dropped
in the include/linux/netdevice.h file, other than that LGTM.
