Ah yes, maybe I can explain it.

Nothing I hope.
The patch "[PATCH 2/2] iwl4965: report A-MPDU status" might have
the date 2013-01-18, but it was sent on the 26th... A week after
the RFC.
Note: The RFC is just both patches ("report A-MPDU status" and
"iwlegacy: fix antenna mask") merged into one. I did that because
I wanted to point out the issue of the *shared* bit (antenna mask
vs ampdu indicator). And thankfully, Johannes explained that...
"the definition in question has always been the same for all
hardware. I just didn't fix it for 4965 since it was split off
to iwlegacy already."
Note2: I had to edit the patch "fix antenna mask" a second time,
that's why it has a newer date.
> Is this the right patch to merge?
Yes.
Best Regards,
Christian
