For netdev, the subject line should contain the tree that you want
the patch applied to.

So, "[PATCH net n/N] ..." or "[PATCH net-next n/N] ..."

In this case, because it isn't a fix, you want net-next. However, as
we are in the upstream merge window, the net-next tree is currently
closed to new submissions. Please wait until it has reopened, which
will after -rc1 has been released.

You can check the current status of net-next at:
	http://vger.kernel.org/~davem/net-next.html

Thanks.
