Hi Peter

Please take a read of:

https://docs.kernel.org/process/submitting-patches.html

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/maintainer-netdev.html#netdev-faq

This is a networking fix, so please base the patch on net:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net.git

Please include a Fixed: tag indicating when the problem was added.

Also, add a Cc: stable@...r.kernel.org, which will cause the patch to
be back ported to stable trees, including linux-5.15.

You can use the script scripts/get_maintainer.pl to get a list of
Maintainers you should Cc: the patch to.

The code change itself looks reasonable, although Florian should
review it.

   Thanks
	Andrew
