If you don't mind, please split each cleanup into a separate patch and do all 
d80211 drivers at the same time. adm8211 can also use the PCI_DEVICE cleanup, 
and adm8211, rt2x00, rtl8187, and zd1211rw can also switch to a const 
ieee80211_ops struct. I don't take patches for rt2x00 so you can either have 
a patch with the adm8211/p54/zd1211rw ieee80211_ops cleanup and another with  
the rt2x00 ieee80211_ops cleanup or you can make one big ieee80211_ops patch 
and let Linville apply that patch.

As for the __packed cleanup, I do not see any code in the kernel that uses 
__packed, so I think it would be better if we dropped that for now.

Thanks,
