Is there a template that you can share that linux-rdma follows that I can use to mention what tests are done?
Any example past cover letters that I can refer as reference?

Depending on how much information you expect in cover letter, this patchset can have many revisions just for cover letter.
So it would be best for you to share the template that I can fill in for v1.

Which are those tests that I should execute apart from above summary?

As I already told this particular patch is not tested. All others are needless to say tested.
I do not have APM setup to test this fix.
I am ok to drop this patch and provide fix when crash occurs later on.
