Maxim, networking maintainers apply patches on the master branch of one
of the 2 trees:
- https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next.git if
  it's a new feature
- https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net.git if it's
  a bug fix

Your patch applies to neither of these trees.
