There are two reverts, both in mac80211.  One was found to cause a
regression.  The other revert was requested by the mac80211 maintainer
(Johannes) on the basis of API abuse and a lack of faith that the
implementation actual did anything useful. :-(

This includes a fix for an IBSS-related race condition from Johannes,
and a fix for an nl80211 integer overflow from Luca.  Also included
are a couple of rtlwifi fixes from Mike McCormack, one that fixes a
packet dropping error, and another that avoids incorrectly modifying
a resubmitted skb.  But the big hero this round is Stanislaw, who
not only identified a fix from Wey-Yi that need to go for 3.0 rather
than 3.1, but he also fixed an rmmod crash in rt2x00, a locking issue
in iwlgacy, a power setting bug in iwl4965, and an 802.11n general
instability issue on iwlagn.  As a result, I am researching popular
beers in the Czech Republic... :-)

Please let me know if there are problems!
Pulled, thanks!
