The commit message should include a 'Fixes' tag pointing to the commit 
introducing the issue.

Also please include some actual wording in the commit message itself 
describing the issue and the fix.

As Simon noted on the previous submission, please read carefully the 
process description under:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/

and especially:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/maintainer-netdev.html

Thanks,

Paolo
