Sorry about that, I should've rechecked this after Johannes did the merge.
I applied this patch (to wireless-testing) and pushed tag wt-2016-10-12.
Let me know of any further issues.

As a check I also diffed against mac80211-next/master and found additional
merge damage in the diff which I fixed up.  Once the merge window closes
in a few days, I'll resync to the masters of all the trees.
