Yes, that was for the net, therefore the stable tree. The very first 
rule for the patches going to the stable tree is that the patch must be 
tested.

I don't see a clear indication of the patches submitted to net-next 
being tested on the relevant hardware by the author. Therefore, I 
explicitly put my tag to state it. Let me know if you don't agree with this.
