Subject: Re: Request: follow-up fixes for "net: add xmit recursion limit to tunnel xmit functions" in 6.6.y and 6.1.y

6f1a9140ecda has already shipped in 6.6.160, so these are fixes for a
released tree. Your follow-up requests for 6.6 (77facb35227c and
c38b8f5f791e) are noted, and have not been acted on in this round.

I have dropped 6f1a9140ecda ("net: add xmit recursion limit to tunnel
xmit functions") from the 6.1 queue for now, so the 6.1 follow-ups are
moot there.

Thanks for checking this and for the build testing.
