Johannes Berg says: ==================== Lots of updates for net-next; along with the usual flurry of small fixes, cleanups and internal features we have: * VHT support for TDLS and IBSS (conditional on drivers though) * first TX performance improvements (the biggest will come later) * many suspend/resume (race) fixes * name_assign_type support from Tom Gundersen ====================
