a v2 with no changelog. From what I can tell the only difference is "net: " in the Subject line which is not what I said in the last email.
Let me try again: There are 2 trees - net for bug fixes and net-next for development (anything that is not a bug fix). Each patch should specify which tree the patch is for by putting 'net' or 'net-next' in the brackets ([]). This is a cleanup not a bug fix, so this patch should be:
[PATCH net-next] ipv6: remove unused local variable
and really that should be
[PATCH net-next] ipv6: remove unnecessary local variable
If you send more versions of a patch always put a changelog - a summary of what is different in the current patch versus the previous ones.
No need to send another version of this patch unless you get a comment requesting change, or the maintainers ask for a re-send.
