Subject: linux-next: manual merge of the wireless-next tree with the
 wireless tree

Hi John,

Today's linux-next merge of the wireless-next tree got a conflict in
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/Kconfig between commit 8bb7f167a12a
("ath9k: Use minstrel rate control by default") from the wireless tree
and commit cf657a2bc50d ("ath9k: Remove MAC_DEBUG") from the
wireless-next tree.

I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary (no action
is required).
