If you are targeting this as a fix, then:
1. Use "[PATCH net]" as subject prefix. See [1].
2. Add a Fixes tag.
3. Please mention in the commit message that this is fixed by using the
payload_template_calc_checksum() / payload_template_expand_checksum()
helpers that are only available in v6.3 and newer kernels.
Patch looks good otherwise (I also tested it).
