Subject: First compat-wireless based on v3.2
Happy new years with v3.2. We have two compat-wireless releases ready
based on the final v3.2 Linus pushed out, a vanilla release [0] and
another one with patches pending for stable from linux-next.git sucked
out [1]. The "-s" postfix here annotates that pending-stable fixes
have been applied on top of the vanilla Linus release. For details on
changes you can refer to the ChangeLog-2.6.36-rc5-wireless [2], below
is the main contributions to the generic backport module compat, and
compat-wirless which uses compat. For more details of what this is
visit the stable compat-wireless releases page [3]. I send these out
from sunny Costa Rica :)

Johannes Berg (3):
The led_lock is never initialised, so there are
warnings/errors. It can also be made static.
Depending on the arguments to alloc_netdev_mqs(), it may
give a warning due to the use of max(). Fix the warning with
max_t().
