Some problems with your patch:
1) Your patch doesn't apply properly. It has been corrupted.
Somehow, even though you used an attachment, tab characters were transformed into spaces.
2) Networking patches should be sent with at least netdev@vger.kernel.org CC:'d so that your patch gets properly traced at http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/netdev/list/
3) You need to provide a proper "Signed-off-by:" line with your patch description. See linux/Documentation/SubmittingPatches for details.
Please fix these issues up and resubmit your patch.
Thank you.
