Hi Kornel

Please take a look at

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/maintainer-netdev.html#netdev-faq

and

https://docs.kernel.org/process/submitting-patches.html

This appears to be a bugfix, so it should have a Fixes: tag. It then
should be based on the net tree, and this should be indicated in the
Subject: line.

That change itself looks fine, you just have some process issues to
correct.
