Both the code change and the Fixes: tag are correct, thank you!

Great to hear :)
Would this be material for stable?
I hope to avoid building my own kernel and just use a hwe kernel of Ubuntu.
I believe so. Especially that you have a Fixes: tag, it's easy to tell
if this patch should be backported to given stable tree.
This happens outside of the Intel, after the patch will be eventually
applied to net tree.
There is an option to CC stable directly, or even point out to what
kernels your patch should be backported to. But in easy cases, I like to
keep it "automatic", thanks to Sasha Levin and Greg KH.
Than OS Vendors will get it down from there.
BTW, we obey netdev rules on IWL ML - next revision only after 24-48h
and send as standalone series (instead of In-reply-to) - no need to
repost this time of course
Sorry, I'm new to submitting patches here.
Is there anything else I need to do?
for IWL patches: Intel VAL will test it out (will reach to you in case
of any issues), then Tony will bundle it together with other fixes to
send to net (process is the same for next-, with minor details)
so you could just wait for this fix to be backported to stable
Kind regards
Peter
