Subject: Submitted a patch, got error "Patch does not apply to net-next-0"

Hi,

First time submitter and it seems I did something wrong, as I got the error "Patch does not apply to net-next-0". I suspected it was complaining about a missing end-of-line, so I resubmitted and get the error "Patch does not apply to net-next-1". So now I'm unsure how to correct this.

My patch is: Netlink flag for creating IPv6 Default Routes (https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/patch/SJ0PR84MB2088B1B93C75A4AAC5B90490D8632@SJ0PR84MB2088.NAMPRD84.PROD.OUTLOOK.COM/).

I followed the instructions at https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v5.12/networking/netdev-FAQ.html.

Here's my local repo:

$ git remote -v
origin  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next.git (fetch)
origin  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next.git (push)

After committing my changes, I ran:

$ git format-patch --subject-prefix='PATCH net-next' -1 95c6e5c898d3

It produced the file "0001-Netlink-flag-for-creating-IPv6-Default-Routes.patch".  I emailed the contents of that file to this list.

How do I correct this?

Thanks,
Matt.
