commit 01a282980937f9ca55a3cb06b9c6ff1cc49ea396

Dave,

Yet another batch of updates intended for 3.4 -- they keep on
coming! :-)

Highlights here include a batch of ath6kl updates, a batch of mwifiex
code cleanups, a number of mac80211 refactoring patches from Johannes,
the usual level of activity around iwlwifi and ath9k, and a handful
of updates to other drivers.

Please let me know if there are problems!

John

P.S. This pull request should also resolve the linux-next merge
issue Stephen reported today.
