I assume I can take this to wireless-drivers-next. If not, please
holler.

Fuqian, it would help the maintainers a lot if you could clearly
indicate to which tree the patches are planned to be commited. If I just
see one patch from a 30 patch set I have no clue what is your plan,
either is someone else going to apply the full patchset or the
maintainers should pick respective patches individually.
