Please ignore the patch.  Because  the hostap_proc.c is marked as 'obsolete'.

You mean marked in the MAINTAINERS file? I don't see that as a problem,
I can (and should) still apply any patches submitted to hostap driver.

I  hit the following issue when checking the patch by checkpatch.pl

WARNING: drivers/net/wireless/intersil/hostap/hostap_proc.c is marked
as 'obsolete' in the MAINTAINERS hierarchy.
No unnecessary modifications please.

I certainly hope it can be appiled to upstream if the above check doesn't matter.

I have no idea why checkpatch says like that and I'm going to just
ignore that warning. As long as the driver is in the tree I think it
should be improved.
