Subject: Re: [PATCH 0/8] net: ll_temac: Bugfixes and ethtool support

Several errors in this submission:

1) Do not mix bug fixes and new features.  Submit the bug fixes
   targetting 'net', and then wait for net to be merged into
   net-next at which time you can submit the new features on
   top.

2) As per Documentation/networking/netdev-FAQ.rst you should not
   ever CC: stable for networking patches, we submit bug fixes to
   stable ourselves.

Thank you.
