We want to decide should the patch go to net, because it is a real
problem which bothers somebody. Or is it a theoretical problem which
will never happen, so we might want net-next, or maybe /dev/null.

Sometimes it is really obvious, things like a:

Reported-by:
Tested-by: 

from the same person, makes it clear it should go to net, and it
probably is correct.

If not, a statement like:

Tested on real hardware, regression solved, no other regressions
found.

or

amd64 Compile tested only, probably broken, RFT.

or

New feature tested on real hardware.

Put yourself in our position. You are the Maintainer, what would you
want to read to know it is going to the correct tree.
