That's a valid concern, and I appreciate you indicated this. But then,
it's better if you resubmit and include in the description what you
did to test it.

Don't get upset, it can be a bit frustrating to understand the whole
process in the beginning, and keep re-submitting if you think you're
doing the right thing.

Another note: I also remember you also posted patches out of the
"merge window".  Netfilter sticks to David Miller's net-next merge
window, which is now closed BTW. Merge window (not strictly this, but
an approximation) opens by when -rc1 is released and then it closes by
when the first mainline kernel version is released.

Thanks.
