A bug fix is not appropriate for the next tree.

All bug fixes should target 'net'.  You even contacted me privately
asking me to queue this up for -stable.  Submitting something for
net-next and wanting a -stable backport is doubly inappropriate.

Things don't go to -stable unless it's in Linus's tree.  'net' is
for bug fixes, 'net-next' (closed right now) is for new features,
cleanups, and fixes to code only present in 'net-next'.

Anyways I applied this to 'net' and queued it up for -stable.
