My patch is against -net. (I see you already figured out your patch is missing in -net-next.)
Ok, should have re-read this email before working on the patch;->
Or are you suggesting to rebase it for -net-next? I think it fixes some real bug so -net is better, although it is slightly large as a bug fix.
I am conflicted. There are a lot of changes in net-next at the moment; adding this to -net seems like will definetely cause merge issues for Dave. Ok, Cong - patch attached and tested. Let me know what you think. cheers, jamal
