I checked that since v3 patchset the current patch has not changed.
The description from my perspective is right because it truly adds two
reasons in tcp_rcv_synsent_state_process().

The first series in v4:
For "patch v4 [1/5]" - "patch v4 [5/5]", they correspond to "patch v6
[1/11]" - "patch v6 [5/11]".

The other series in v4:
For "patch v4 [1/6]" - "patch v4 [6/6]", they correspond to "patch v6
[6/11]" - "patch v6 [11/11]".
