No, people use the corresponding mailing lists to send and repositories
to base their patches on.

No. Please use net-next I provided above. Your subject prefix will be

[PATCH net-next v3]

since you'll have changes (specifying the correct tree).
You can ask git-format-patch to generate it automatically via

`git format-patch --subject-prefix='PATCH net-next' -v3 ...`

One more note: I was participating in reviewing/discussing your first
patch version, so please add all the participants to --cc when you send
next versions. For this particular patch it means Jakub, Simon and me
must be specified explicitly in --cc when you send v3.
