These are not bug fixes, some of them are just cleanups.

It is inappropriate to mix real bug fixes and non-bug fixes into
a patch series.

You must send purely the bug fixes for 'net' tree, and then later
the code cleanups and other changes targetting the 'net-next' tree.

Also, from patch #5:

====================
 -Something else
====================

That is completely unacceptable.  You must say what changes you are
making, the above says nothing to me nor the person reading your
commit messages in the future.

In general, your commit messages are poorly written in that they
contain not enough information for the person trying to understand
your patches at all.
