I was a bit confused about how to choose net and net-next in this case,
but I understand what you are saying.
As I wrote:
>> Currently these two values as the same and there is no impact
this case isn't about fixing what is broken and also not required fixes
for the stable kernel, so I should post this series to net-next without
Fixes: tag.

I see. I'll take care and repost.
