Yeah, I understand.

So what we try to follow is that I apply all patches for
drivers/net/wireless to my wireless-drivers trees, with exception of
Johannes taking mac80211_hwsim.c patches to his mac80211 trees. And
Johannes of course takes all patches for net/wireless and net/mac80211.

So in general I prefer that I take all drivers/net/wireless patches and
make it obvious for Dave that he can ignore those patches (not mix
wireless-drivers and net patches into same set etc). But like I said,
it's ok to push API changes like these via Dave's net trees as well if
you want (and if Dave is ok with that). The chances of conflicts is low,
and if there are be any those would be easy to fix either by me or Dave.

Ok, I don't drop the patches from my queue quite yet then.
