Eliminate the space here between * and this_arg.

Here.                                     ^

You get the idea.                       ^

Don't think anything from here is used.

We don't touch any mutexes in this file..

Nor do we care about devices.

Or netlink.

Or wiphys.

nl80211.h and core.h seem unnecessary too.

All these includes might be pulling some other header that you do need, 
however. (linux/kernel.h probably covers it..)

I think the code would look better without a blank line following the comment.

Unnecessary parenthesis. ^                                    ^

Ditto.                  ^                     ^

I usually like to use sizeof on a variable (eg., sizeof(*radiotap_header)) 
since it's shorter and doesn't need to be changed if the variable type 
changes.

Indenting this a bit more to the right should look better.

Ditto.

For pointer arithmetic, you should use unsigned long. The parenthesis are a 
little too paranoid here too.

> +		if ((((int)iterator->arg)-((int)iterator->rtheader)) &
unsigned long for pointer arithmetic and reduce parenthesis, as before. Seems 
to be a lot of this, so I won't mention it again.

A blank line after a label doesn't look right to me..

Move "le32_to_cpu(" down to the next line.

Another unnecessary blank line. ;)
