Dave,
Another week, another huge pull request for -next...
This offering is mostly the usual driver updates and such for ath9k,
iwlwifi, rt2x00, wl1271, and a few others. Also featured are a number
of mac80211, cfg80211 and nl80211 improvements from Johannes, as well
as some mac80211 scanning improvements from Stanislaw. Johannes is
also sneaking a genetlink feature through this tree, of which you
are already aware. :-)
Please let me know if there are problems!
Thanks,
John
