Not sure, whether it is a bug fix or not. Since it only improves readability.
I believe it should point to net-next.

Agree :)

Feel free to remove the Fixes tag while applying.

If you're talking to Arun: he can't do that. Only Jakub, David, Paolo
and Eric can apply patches, and based on history, I don't think that
either of them is keen on editing patches before applying. One way or
another, based on past experience, you might be better off just resending,
with the Fixes tag dropped, and patch retargeted to net-next (and
counter incremented to v2).

The criteria from Documentation/process/stable-kernel-rules.rst still
apply pretty much to net.git as well, since these patches land in stable
trees too. We triage as much as possible, to give users of stable
kernels a worthwhile reason to update, not a change that results in
absolutely the same generated machine code.
