Previous thread, for context:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/clang-built-linux/1Lu1GT9ic94

Looking at drivers/net/wireless/ti/wl18xx/main.c, there 4 globally
declared `struct ieee80211_iface_limit` but as your patch notes, only
2 are used.  The thing is, their uses are in a `struct
ieee80211_iface_limit []`.

Looking at
$ git blame drivers/net/wireless/ti/wl18xx/main.c -L 1850
points to
commit 7845af35e0de ("wlcore: add p2p device support")
Adding Eliad and Arik to the thread; it's not clear to me what the
these variables were supposed to do, but seeing as the code in
question was already dead, this is no functional change from a user's
perspective.  With that in mind:
Reviewed-by: Nick Desaulniers <ndesaulniers@xxxxxxxxxx>

So I'd at least add the tag.
Fixes: 7845af35e0de ("wlcore: add p2p device support")
