Ah, that's why kbuild bot didn't report about this problem while your
patch was in my pending branch. And I was also really puzzled why it
claimed that my merge was at fault :) Thanks for the good explanation.
Just to clarify: ath-current is for patches going to 4.14 and ath-next
to 4.15, that's why they were applied to a different branch.

I see that you already sent the patch, thanks!
