Here are the completed versions of the nl80211 cleanups:

http://johannes.sipsolutions.net/patches/kernel/all/LATEST/NNN-nl80211-use-pre-post.patch
http://johannes.sipsolutions.net/patches/kernel/all/LATEST/NNN-nl80211-generic-running.patch

The combined diffstat of these two is

 net/wireless/nl80211.c | 1756 +++++++++++++++----------------------------------
 1 file changed, 541 insertions(+), 1215 deletions(-)

and they reduce code size by >4k on my x86_64 compile.
