As the original submission was targeting -next, I carried that forward.
Since the warning said it was handled, I thought it was ok to go there.

I'll follow the igc patch and submit a request to stable when it hits
Linus' tree. For igb, as it sounds like things are working, just not
with the preferred method, so I don't plan on sending that to stable.
Or is there an issue there that this patch needs to go to stable as
well?
