You don't think this should go to net ? 

The first 3 version were targeting net branch .. I don't know why Maxim
decided to switch v4 to net-next, Maybe I missed an email ? 

IMHO, I think these are net worthy since they are fixing 
issues with blabla, for commits claiming to add support for blabla.

I already applied those earlier to my net queue and was working on
submission today, let me know if you are ok for me to send those two
patches in my today's net PR.

Thanks,
Saeed
