no I was using linux-next - will switch to that branch for the
ath10k related cleanups (although the one I posted today was the
last from the completion fixup in ath10k - a few more in ath9k
left).

The failure of this patch was though due to a bad fix of a 
checkpatch warning - I alligned the original code rather than 
the replacement - updated my procedure so that re-applying the
patch is the final check before sending out.

thx!
