Subject: pull request: wireless-2.6 2010-02-10

Dave,

Here are a few more hopefuls for 2.6.33.  Most of them are small and
obvious.  The b43 one appears larger because it adds a comment, but it
makes a significant performance improvement against a long-standing
regression.  The scan.c one mostly moves some code around and will save
us from a lot of WARN_ON noise.  And just for good measure, we add a USB
ID to rtl8187. :-)

Please let me know if there are problems!

Thanks,

John
