The last hunk was must be placed in context, patch
is stupid and will only accept hunks in order.

The alx driver uses the addr_assign_type variable from
the netdev data structure which was added as of 2.6.35:
mcgrof@tux ~/linux-next (git::master)$ git describe --contains c1f79426
v2.6.36-rc1~571^2~104
Although compat.git backported dev_hw_addr_random() the patch
in compat.git cannot address usage of addr_assign_type and as
such requires an ifdef around it.

This is now posted so we merge it. We can remove this once
David merges the driver and it gets into linux-next.git.

This will help with load and memory. This patch seems to not
be merged yet due to a backlog but we want it for testing
purposes of carl9170.

We need this for testing purposes for carl9170 which may
get done this weekend.

This adds this pending patch:
From: Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan <vasanth@atheros.com>
Subject: [PATCH] ath9k: Fix bug in the way "bf_tx_aborted" of struct ath_buf is used
Date: Wed, 26 May 2010 19:06:53 -0700
This bug was introduced by the following commit
Author: Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan <vasanth@atheros.com>
Date: Thu Apr 15 17:38:46 2010 -0400
ath9k: Remove ATH9K_TX_SW_ABORTED and introduce a bool for this purpose
Wrong buffer is checked for bf_tx_aborted field in ath_tx_num_badfrms(),
this may result in a rate scaling with wrong feedback (number
of unacked frames in this case). It is the last one in the chain
of buffers for an aggregate frame that should be checked.
Also it misses the initialization of this field in the buffer,
this may lead to a situation where we stop the sw retransmission
of failed subframes associated to this buffer.

ath9k: remove VEOL support for ad-hoc
With VEOL, Beacon transmission in ad-hoc does not currently work.
I believe for larger ad-hoc networks, VEOL is too unreliable, as
it can get beacon transmissions stuck during synchronization.
Use SWBA based beacon trasmission similar to AP mode instead.

This just adds three patches by Felix posted today. To generate
these and merge these back into this tree though I am using
a very crude technique though:
I cherry pick patches from the mailing lists, I then git am
them onto a local wireless-testing tree, then I
git format-patch -o compat-pending-05-25 origin..pending-sha1sum
Then I git rm linux-next-pending/*.patch and add the new series.
This is a bit sloppy, I admit it but it works well for how I am
managing it. If you need a patch sucked into this series let me
know and I'll go ahead and merge it as well. For now I am just
taking in things I see as important for ath9k, mac80211 and
cfg80211. If you want to consider your drivers just ask in the
linux-wireless / linux-bluetooth list (cc'ing me or something)
annotating the patch for me to be picked up. At least lets try
it for now this way and see it how it goes. If you think of
something better let me know.
These pending patches are applied with the -p option of
./scripts/admin-update.sh -p

We're in the merge window, so this adds all the patches pending
merge from Atheros. Note that these are not applied by default,
to apply then you must use the "-p" flag for ./scripts/admin-update.sh

Sometimes you have no other option but to carry around patches.
This can happen for a variety of reasons. Ultimately testing of code
cannot happen on the kernel maintainer's clock but on your own.
This expands the idea of the linux-next-cherry-pick patch directory
on compat-wireless to also allow for patches to be merged which are
posted to some mailing list but pending merge due to some reasons
(merge window is a good example). It also adds a crap patch directory
for those really nasty situations you can run into where you have
no other option but to give someone a release with some delta even
if the patch is not yet posted anywhere.
The focus should always be upstream though so to avoid these
situations we will also provide code metrics to indicate to
the package maintainer how much code came from each directory,
including the backport code to support older kernel releases.
Maybe we should add the code-metrics.txt file as a print out
on the compat module load :)
