This patch series has a lot of problems.
The worst one is that you are mixing bug fixes and new features/cleanups.
You cannot do that.
You _especially_ can't do that if you expect some of this stuff to be submitted to -stable too.
Therefore you _must_ extract out the bug fixes, and submit those against 'net'. And you must then wait for 'net' to be merged into 'net-next' before submitting the new feature patches.
Furthermore, you should explicitly show what tree you are targetting your patches at, in your Subject lines. In the form:
Subject: [PATCH $(TREE) N/M]
Where $(TREE) is either 'net' or 'net-next'.
THanks.
