linux-next: merge of the wireless-next tree into the net-next tree

Hi all,

I noticed that the wireless-next tree has been merged into the net-next
tree today.  Has anything been done about the build failure I reported in
the wireless-next a while ago:

I can't figure out what goes wrong here.  On the compile command line,
KBUILD_MODNAME is not defined, but KBUILD_BASE_NAME is.

However, reverting commit fde57764ef87 ("ath6kl: enable USB support")
made the problem go away.  That commit caused the above two files to be
built into two separate modules.

There was some discussion, but I did not notice any fix (I may have
missed it).  I have been reverting that above commit ...
