Hi Christian

We normally target net for such patches, since users wanting to
contact Maintainers are often using older kernels.

Very true. Tho in this specific case we may take it via 
net-next to cheat the patch count numbers in the final PR 
for this release ;)

I suggest waiting. This sort of patch does not require CI testing. So
it is safe to apply to any tree. Jakub will probably accept it to the
correct tree.
