Previous ones were for net-next and in fact in the subject I indeed used:

  [net-next X/N] stmmac: ....

After your comment I re-sent them for net.git (pls see my previous email
where I clarified that).

I have always posted all my patches for net-next adding its suffix in
the subject.

For all the patches for net.git I've never added the suffix but I'll do
that.

I agree with you that the suffix should be added and I had understood
(and always used and fixed in my subjectprefix) that these were the
format of the patches in this mailing list

[PATCH] ...        =>>> for net.git
[PATCH net-next]   =>>> for net-next.git

So I'll use starting from now:

[PATCH (net.git)]    =>>> for net.git
[PATCH (net-next)]   =>>> for net-next.git
