The patch has been corrupted by you email client. But otherwise, yes.

Please take a look at:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v4.12/process/submitting-patches.html

It will give you hits about correctly formatting the patch. In
addition it should have:

Fixes: 4cd5773a2ae6 ("net: core: move mac_pton() to lib/net_utils.c")

before the --- line, to indicate what it is fixing.

This patch should be against
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next.git,
since it is a fix, and sent to [off-list ref].
Guys, consider this one instead:

Hi Andy

Thanks for pointing this patch out.

What is the advantage of doing to the strnlen()? As Stefan says, the
code which follows will detect a short string, in that a NULL is not
in [0-9a-f], nor a : .

Thanks
	Andrew
