But Long Li sent the patch which starts to use POST_INIT against
the net-next tree. If we apply this to net and Long Li's patch to
net-next one release will have half of the fixes.

I think that you should add Long Li's patch to this series. That'd
limit the confusion and git preserves authorship of the changes, so
neither of you will loose the credit.
