In general, it is better to do renames in a separate patch -- the
fixups are easier in cases where something else hit that file before
your patch is applied.  It might also help if you based big patches
(or big series) on wireless-next-2.6 instead of wireless-testing, as I
need to apply them to wireless-next-2.6 before I can send them to Dave.

In this case, a patch that wireless-testing picked-up from linux-2.6
and which isn't in wireless-next-2.6 (and probably not net-next-2.6
either) causes this patch to fail to apply to wirless-next-2.6.
I'll fix it up, in the interest of putting this series behind us...
