You are mixing fixes and development work. You should not do that,
please keep them separate. They are heading in different
directions. Fixed should get applied to -rc1, where as development
work will be queued for the next merge window.

You are also missing Fixes: tags for the two MDIO patches. Stable
needs them to know how far back to port the fixes.
