Dave,

Here is a spooky Halloween pull request for wireless bits intended for
2.6.29 -- Boo!  Are you scared?

There is a ton of stuff here.  The good news is that it has been cooking
in wireless-testing for a while and it seems OK. :-)  There are some
warning in the build like "‘__IEEE80211_CONF_SHORT_SLOT_TIME’ is
deprecated".  Don't worry, I already have more patches cooking in
wireless-testing that will take care of those warnings in the next
round.

Please let me know if there are problems!

Thanks,

John
