Subject: Re: [PATCH] net: lan966x: fix parameter check in two functions

> Make IS_ERR_OR_NULL() judge the vcap_get_rule() function return

Would the term “return value” be relevant here?

Would you like to improve this change description also according to
review comments from other patches?

How do you think about to add the tag “Fixes” because of a desirable
source code adjustment?

Would a subject like “[PATCH v2] net: lan966x: Fix an error check in two functions
be more appropriate?
