And next another staging driver stops building:

drivers/staging/wlan-ng/cfg80211.c: In function ‘prism2_scan’:
drivers/staging/wlan-ng/cfg80211.c:419:10: error: implicit declaration of function ‘ieee80211_dsss_chan_to_freq’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
          ieee80211_dsss_chan_to_freq(msg2.dschannel.data)),

We cannot have drivers, even staging driver, stop building due to
wireless tree pulls.  Please do not do this.

I'm going to undo the pull of wireless-next, and ask you to fix
all of this stuff up.

Thanks.
