I've been trying to review some patches lately, but have not had much free time... But don't worry, since it's in the database, it will not be forgotten.

Hi
  I have written a dissector for MIH protocol as specified by IEEE 802.21
standard, and have submitted it as a patch in bugzilla..

https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=5881

But I have some problem, what is the transport protocol and the port
number to be used to decode the packet as MIH protocol. I have gone
through the standard and I did not get any answer. For now I have directly
taken it as 4551(as specified by IANA), is it right?
Yes, using the IANA assignment certainly seems correct.

RFC 5677 lists this IANA assignment too:
