Luc,

Thanks for your patch...

... would it be possible that you re-spin it so that it applies to the 
new location of this driver:
drivers/net/wireless/microchip/wilc1000/netdev.c

You can rebase your patch on the wireless-driver-next tree with 
wilc1000-move-out-of-staging branch:

tree: 
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvalo/wireless-drivers-next.git
branch: wilc1000-move-out-of-staging

(Then you can also review the subject line of your patch, BTW)

Thanks for your help. Best regards,
   Nicolas
