Please take note of the notifications you're getting. The previous
versions of this and the other two patches you posted shortly after
were already merged into the net tree:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net.git/commit/?id=db6d6afe382de5a65d6ccf51253ab48b8e8336c3

If you want to refactor the check you need to send an incremental
change (IOW diff against the previously applied patch).
