["John W. Linville" <linville@tuxdriver.com>]

Dave,

Here are a few (almost-)one-liners for 2.6.32.  Included are fixes for
a use-after-free, a missing "!" in front of a memcmp when comparing
BSSIDs, a race when using hardware-based scanning, the ieee80211_rx
context problem, a related documentation change, and a minor build
issue.

Please let me know if there are problems!

Thanks,

John
