Yes, I agree with you. However, this commit is intended to fix an issue 
in the rdma-next tree. The corresponding repository is: 
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/leon/linux-rdma.git.

Therefore, the subject should be: [PATCH rdma-next]

This problem does not exist in the upstream Linux kernel.

Other than that, I have no issues with the commit.
