Hi,

You based this on wireless-next, I cannot pull this.

Ideally -rc6, but I'm not really sure it's worth mentioning what you're
aiming for anyway ;-)

I guess I'll (when you send a new version) pull this and try to convince
net to take it, but Jakub pushed back because Linus pushed back, and you
really can't just send a single pull request late in the cycle this day
and age. You _need_ to send more pull requests and earlier, especially
now that we get so many fixes. Yes it's only seven patches now, but some
have been pending for almost two months, and Felix has *36* patches (if
I pull that). It adds up quickly. Please send things during earlier RCs.

Wait, no, I got confused, oops. Ideally -rc7, yeah.

HiJohannes,

Sorry about that. v2 has been rebased onto the correct base.

Understood. I'll send fixes earlier in future RC cycles.
