$Subject should be have [PATCH net] since this targets the net tree:

Please, always write a commit body, even if its simple. Just inferring
from this patch, I am guessing there is some limitation on CPU's DMA
address width that doesn't match up with the MAC's ability? Paint that
picture for us here please! We want to know the _why_ in this section.

Also, I think the Fixes: here would be for adding support for this SoC
in the driver, not what's listed? Might make more sense after you have a
proper body though.

I know this is under the ---, so its not actually in the commit, but I'd
not include that at all when submitting. Someone will complain about it
looking like this is from / for a downstream fork. At least checkpatch
doesn't warn about it, but a human probably will :P
