The problem is that the patch applies with a bunch of fuzz, which moves
it to a different function, and that fails the build:

  CC [M]  net/mac80211/iface.o
net/mac80211/iface.c: In function ‘ieee80211_recalc_idle’:
net/mac80211/iface.c:1413:2: error: ‘sdata’ undeclared (first use in this function)
net/mac80211/iface.c:1413:2: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in
net/mac80211/iface.c:1413:2: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type [enabled by default]
make[2]: *** [net/mac80211/iface.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [net/mac80211] Error 2
make: *** [_module_net] Error 2

If you could provide a properly backported version, that applies without fuzz,
I'll be glad to queue it up.

thanks,
