Something is odd with this patch, it doesn't apply, even against that
commit id:
Applying: staging: r8821ae: Remove driver from staging
error: patch failed: drivers/staging/rtl8821ae/btcoexist/HalBtc8812a1Ant.c:1
error: drivers/staging/rtl8821ae/btcoexist/HalBtc8812a1Ant.c: patch does not apply
Patch failed at 0001 staging: r8821ae: Remove driver from staging
The copy of the patch that failed is found in:
   /home/gregkh/linux/work/staging/.git/rebase-apply/patch
When you have resolved this problem, run "git am --continue".
If you prefer to skip this patch, run "git am --skip" instead.
To restore the original branch and stop patching, run "git am --abort".

Can you refresh against the staging-next branch of staging.git and try it
again?  Or I can just delete it "by hand" which is fine with me, and might be
easier fro you, just let me know.

thanks,
