SubjectRe: [PATCH net v2] net: macsec: retrieve the XPN attributes before offloading
Date
Thanks Paolo,

I'll redo the patch and send it again.
About the changes between the previous patch, there're only changes on the description and format of the patch, but none on the code side, maybe referencing them is irrelevant.

I'm sorry for nit-picking, but you must avoid empty lines between the
the 'Fixes' and the 'Signed-off-by' tags (or any other tag).

Additionnaly you should include a summary of the changes WRT the
previous patch version, see e.g. commit cec16052d5a7.

The patch contents looks good, but it's better if you address the
above, thanks!

Paolo
