The assignment dev = dev is redundant and should be removed.

Applied, Thanks.

Please use [PATCH bpf-next] in the subject next time.
See Documentation/bpf/bpf_devel_QA.rst
Guys, be reasonable...

I have sent patches to 206 maintainers.  It doesn't scale for everyone
to have their own special document for sending patches.
Thanks Dan, I support this point of view completely.  Special information
has to be in one place and in a machine readable manner.  Maybe
get_maintainers can produce this information in some way, if it is
essential.

I asked this last time, and I even skimmed your document, but how are
people supposed to go from linux-next to the correct bpf-next git tree?
It's a pain for me to do this for net, but net is way larger and busier
than any other tree.  I know it's a bit rude for me to say that you guys
are not as important as net, but that's how I feel.  I'm only going to
report bugs instead of writing patches if you guys are going to insist
on all sorts of new rules.

regards,
dan carpenter
