Thanks for the patch, it is correct, but, there are a few things that
you probably want to fix and resend.

1) You need to choose the tree you want to send. Usually `net-next` or
   `net`. In you case, I suppose it can go to documentation tree also.

https://docs.kernel.org/process/maintainer-netdev.html#git-trees-and-patch-flow
and
https://docs.kernel.org/process/maintainer-netdev.html#indicating-target-tree

2) If sent to the netdev, you need to have the maintainers in to/cc. The
   tool `b4` helps with that.
