John W. Linville says: ==================== pull request: wireless-next 2014-09-22 Please pull this batch of updates intended for the 3.18 stream... For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says: "This time, I have some rate minstrel improvements, support for a very small feature from CCX that Steinar reverse-engineered, dynamic ACK timeout support, a number of changes for TDLS, early support for radio resource measurement and many fixes. Also, I'm changing a number of places to clear key memory when it's freed and Intel claims copyright for code they developed." For the bluetooth bits, Johan says: "Here are some more patches intended for 3.18. Most of them are cleanups or fixes for SMP. The only exception is a fix for BR/EDR L2CAP fixed channels which should now work better together with the L2CAP information request procedure." For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says: "I fix here dvm which was broken by my last pull request. Arik continues to work on TDLS and Luca solved a few issues in CT-Kill. Eyal keeps digging into rate scaling code, more to come soon. Besides this, nothing really special here." Beyond that, there are the usual big batches of updates to ath9k, b43, mwifiex, and wil6210 as well as a handful of other bits here and there. Also, rtlwifi gets some btcoexist attention from Larry. Please let me know if there are problems! ==================== Had to adjust the wil6210 code to comply with Joe Perches's recent change in net-next to make the netdev_*() routines return void instead of 'int'.
