Please CC: netdev@...r.kernel.org for all networking patches.  Asking
qustions on lkml about networking issues is unlikely to obtain a
response.

Also, instead of giving an external refernce to a web site discussion,
you must explain _in painful detail_ in your commit message the
reasons for making this change.  Just "Android does it this way" is
not an acceptable reason.

People should be able to read the commit message and completely
understand why a change was made.

Thanks.
