I now created one big commit which I'm planning to take to wireless-drivers-next: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvalo/wireless-drivers-next.git/commit/?h=pending&id=80b361279546ca7a57c7e7844c2e23f474f9852d Please double check that I didn't break anything while squashing the patches. I tried to be careful, but you never know. -- https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/list/ https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/developers/documentation/submittingpatches
