Note that the driver doesn't directly use this field, but it should be
correctly defined in any case.

I'd like to see this in 3.11-rc

Comment referring to releases should be after "---" line so that they
don't end up in the commit log.

And besides, I don't think this is important enough for -rc. I doubt
there are users who absolutely need this quickly and this patch can wait
for the next merge window.

Duly noted.

This is effectively a documentation fix, since the driver 
currently sets that field to '0' (ie "use firmware default").  

That said, while it's trivial, it's a fix nonetheless.

As long as the patch doesn't get dropped.  I have my preference, but 
I'll leave exactly when it gets merged to Linville's disretion.

(I have some not-yet-finished new work that's clearly -next material,
 and two patches that need to go into -backports, as soon as I figure 
 out how to integrate that)

 - Solomon
