It would be good if you first prepared a bug fix patch for the existing
kernel stack memory leakage, and submit that to the net.git tree.
The net.git is merged back into net-next.git every ~Thursday, and
generally speaking, either you wait for bug fixes to land back into
net-next before you submit new net-next material in the same areas,
or the netdev and linux-next maintainers will have to resolve the merge
conflict between trees manually. Not a huge deal, but it is kind of a
nuisance for backports (to not be able to linearize a series of cherry
picks) and all in all, it's best to organize your work such that you
don't conflict with yourself.
