Thanks for the clarification.

I agree: the minimal bugfix belongs in -net for stable backportability, and the 
conversion to xdp_build_skb_from_zc() belongs in -next.

Please apply the existing v1 bugfix to -net:

It already has :

I will drop v2 as a Fixes candidate.

In parallel, I will send a separate net-next series (as v1) that replaces

i40e_construct_skb_zc() with xdp_build_skb_from_zc(), based on 

net-next. That patch will not carry a Fixes tag.


Thanks,

Chenguang
