Hi Dave,

first set of fixes for 4.16, unusually many when the merge window hasn't
even closed yet. Especially the ssb fix is important so I hope there's
still time to get this to 4.16-rc1. As you can see from the diffstat
there's one PCI id addition but that has been acked by Bjorn.

Please let me know if you have any problems.

Kalle

  Merge ath-current from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvalo/ath.git (2018-02-08 19:28:49 +0200)

----------------------------------------------------------------
wireless-drivers-next patches for 4.16

The most important here is the ssb fix, it has been reported by the
users frequently and the fix just missed the final v4.15. Also
numerous other fixes, mt76 had multiple problems with aggregation and
a long standing unaligned access bug in rtlwifi is finally fixed.

Major changes:

ath10k

* correct firmware RAM dump length for QCA6174/QCA9377

* add new QCA988X device id

* fix a kernel panic during pci probe

* revert a recent commit which broke ath10k firmware metadata parsing

ath9k

* fix a noise floor regression introduced during the merge window

* add new device id

rtlwifi

* fix unaligned access seen on ARM architecture

mt76

* various aggregation fixes which fix connection stalls

ssb

* fix b43 and b44 on non-MIPS which broke in v4.15-rc9
