Hi Stephen,

This is known. Please see the below-the-break comment in the original
patch submission:

https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20211123124832.15419-1-Jason@zx2c4.com/

> The original author of this commit and commit message is anonymous and
> is therefore unable to sign off on it. Greg suggested that I do the sign
> off, extracting it from the bugzilla entry above, and post it properly.
> The patch "seems to work" on first glance, but I haven't looked deeply
> at it yet and therefore it doesn't have my Reviewed-by, even though I'm
> submitting this patch on the author's behalf. And it should probably get
> a good look from the v6 fib folks. The original author should be on this
> thread to address issues that come off, and I'll shephard additional
> versions that he has.
