I think you are missing a few of the comments you received so far.

 - verify the recipient list, the list here was likely generated with an
   old kernel tree using an outdated MAINTAINERS file
 - you need to provide a changelog in your patch, otherwise is not
   possible for other to review
 - some concern were raised on the fact that this is tested only with
   IW416, we should have some confidence this is not creating regressions.
