This explanation is good but the title is not clear enough. It should start with "ixgbe: fix". Fix what? I'd say "fix access to last byte of EEPROM". Then creating a commit starting with "fix" should trigger 2 other things: - a Fixes: tag - an update in the release notes (because the bug exists in previous releases) Thanks
