Hi Dave,

Unfortunately I neglected to send this to you last week before our long
weekend.

These changes look fairly big, but they're fairly contained to the
remain-on- channel and AP_VLAN key handling code.

However, if you think you don't want to pull them into net any more at
this stage just let me know.

Thanks,
johannes

  mac80211: fix AP_VLAN crypto tailroom calculation (2015-05-20 15:10:11 +0200)

----------------------------------------------------------------
We have three more fixes:
 * AP_VLAN tailroom calculation fix, the bug leads to warnings
   along with dropped packets
 * NAPI context issue, calling napi_gro_receive() from a timer
   (obviously) can lead to crashes
 * remain-on-channel combining leads to dropped requests and not
   being able to finish certain operations, so remove it

----------------------------------------------------------------
Johannes Berg (2):
      mac80211: don't use napi_gro_receive() outside NAPI context
      mac80211: don't split remain-on-channel for coalescing
