Should the patch to wireless-drivers be annotated with a Stable reference so
that it is added to 4.12 and 4.13?

According to Documentation/networking/netdev-FAQ.txt networking patches
should not be marked cc:stable, instead a decent commit log should
be written describing a bugfix. Which I believe it is done for
this patch.

But that's for net and net-next trees, not for wireless trees. With
wireless patches we use "Cc: stable@..." references.

I see that this patch was just pushed for 4.14. I hope it got the Stable annotation at that time.
