Brian,
I've edited the bug to follow the kernel SRU procedure:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/KernelUpdates

In addition its helpful to indicate [SRU][PATCH] and for what series
[Utopic] this SRU request is for in the subject.

I see that this line was removed from the original patch, so the patch
should read "backported from" instead of "cherry-picked from":
.ndo_gso_check          = mlx4_en_gso_check,

Finally, the patch needs to have a BugLink line in it, but that can be
added by the committer.

With the above changes made to the PATCH, please add the following:
Acked-By: Chris J Arges <chris.j.arges at canonical.com>

Thanks,
--chris j arges
