You must only make stable submissions for patches that have made their way into Linus's tree.
That is correct. These patches were meant to be sent as reply to the patch you pulled today (that contained the initial Cc: stable@...). These were sent to avoid the cherry-pick of feature patches necessary to merge it and still give an idea how these versions could be fixed after the mentioned commit hit Linus' tree.
Patches you want to end up in -stable should be submitted for 'net' not 'net-next'.
There is no other valid submission scheme.
