Hi Kunwu,

This seems to be a bug fix. If so it should have a fixes tag.
Perhaps this one is correct?

Fixes: 05bd97fc559d ("net: dsa: Add Vitesse VSC73xx DSA router driver")

And, be targeted against net (as opposed to net-next)

Subject: [PATCH net v2] ...

It is probably not necessary to repost to address these minor issues,
but please keep this in mind in future.

The above notwithstanding,
