Hi,

So here's a pretty big and invasive mac80211-next pull. It has now been
in linux-next for some time, and all the issues that had been reported by
people running that are fixed. I've also thrown hwsim and Intel-internal
tests at it. However, changing the locking is somewhat dangerous, so if I
consider it, I sort of expect some more fallout from that. I did sprinkle
lockdep assertions fairly liberally, so we'll see.

Please pull and let me know if there's any problem.

Thanks,
johannes

  cfg80211: avoid holding the RTNL when calling the driver (2021-01-26 11:55:50 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
More updates:
 * many minstrel improvements, including removal of the old
   minstrel in favour of minstrel_ht
 * speed improvements on FQ
 * support for RX decapsulation (header conversion) offload
 * RTNL reduction: limit RTNL usage in the wireless stack
   mostly to where really needed (regulatory not yet) to
   reduce contention on it
 * various other small updates
