Everything is going into git-wireless.
git-wireless contains latest ssb. _but_ John complained
about that. And he is right. SSB is not strictly wireless core.
So I thought it was best to get ssb into mainline as soon as
possible. So -mm is really the way to go into mainline.
My plan was to merge mainline with the next merge window.

It's a bit difficult, as bcm43xx depends on it. Which again depends
on the wireless tree. :)
So basically we are stuck with maintaining it in wireless-dev.

I don't know what your policy is with pulling from wireless-dev.
So wireless-dev currently contains latest SSB. So if you pull from
wireless-dev, you'll also get latest SSB. Though, if we want to
merge SSB soon, we need it broken-out. That is what I was trying
to do.
