As this is in "net" (and not "net-next") it will go to mainline in a
few days[1], and the LF stable team will grab it via the Fixes tag and
backport it automatically (since it is a trivial change).

What I'm getting at here, is that expiditing this (and any other fix that
matches this same criteria) is a make-work project for yourself and for
Bruce.  Unless it is has a priority (like a 0-day CVE) then there is no
point trying to accelerate it vs. just waiting the few extra days for
the normal "hands-free" process feed to take place on its own.

And then it will have [comit abcd upstream] on it as well, indicating
clearly that it was a mainline commit and not something that maybe 
died on a mailing list thread and went no further.

Thanks,
Paul.
