Priit,

I have a couple of points to make. First, when you submit a series of patches 
like this, it is customary to use the cover letter feature of git to generate a 
0/X patch in which to explain the set of patches. In this case, the cover letter 
is not necessary, but it is a good habit to cultivate.

The second point is more important. I'm not sure what source you used to 
generate your patches, but it was clearly not wireless-drivers-next. Commit 
6f8214b69057 ("rtlwifi: Create new routine to initialize the DM tables") moved a 
lot of stuff from the individual drivers into the core. Some of the new stuff 
was included right after the definition of RTL_SUPPORTED_CTRL_FILTER, thus your 
patch fails to apply.

Once you fix this problem, and resubmit V2 of the series, I will approve them. 
FYI, Kalle prefers that all patches be resubmitted, not just the one that changes.
