Ok.

Not a problem, I'll try to remember it for future patches.

Here is the updated patch.


When a driver requested additional header room
through the extra_tx_headroom field, the stack
should respect that and make sure that all frames
that are being send to the stack actually have
that extra header room.
Besides the additional bytes for the beacon template, this patch
is no longer depends on the rts patch to be applied.
