Merge branch 'for-davem' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless
John W. Linville says:
====================
This batch of fixes is intended for 3.6...
Johannes Berg gives us a pair of iwlwifi fixes. One corrects some
improperly defined ifdefs that lead to crashes and BUG_ONs. The other
prevents attempts to read SRAM for devices that aren't actually started.
Julia Lawall provides an ipw2100 fix to properly set the return code
from a function call before testing it! :-)
Thomas Huehn corrects the improper use of a constant related to a power
setting in ath5k.
Thomas Pedersen offers a mac80211 fix to properly handle destination
addresses of unicast frames passing though a mesh gate.
Vladimir Zapolskiy provides a brcmsmac fix to properly mark the
interface state when the device goes down.
