commit 7a73b08b50b075b114d0f608099e4634f9c73ae7

Dave,

This is a batch of fixes intended for 3.3.

Included is a fix for an association failure bug with mwifiex, and a fix
for a NULL pointer deref in that same driver.  There is also an ath9k
fix for a WEP-related regression, and another ath9k fix for an RTS/CTS
timeout regression.  A third ath9k fix address an oops during driver
initialization.  Also included is a zd1211rw fix for an issue where the
firmware would corrupt the duration_id setting and cause devices to be
unable to connect to zd1211rw-based APs.  A fix from me to reduce some
log spam from ath9k rounds-out the bunch.

Please let me know if there are problems!

Thanks,

John
