[...] Looks good to me. Reviewed-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> (most closely the first 4 patches) How do you want to handle merging this? I guess keeping all the patches together would be good. I have no objection to the mac80211/lib80211 patches going through any arbitrary tree, this code is hardly ever touched, so highly unlikely to lead to conflicts. johannes
