Hi Greg,

It cannot apply to your tree because, while it was waiting for acceptance,
someone else did a large part of the removal of the code related to the
unsupported SIOCSIWRATE and you applied this other patch.

However, the no more necessary iw_operation_mode[] is still in your tree. So
I'm about to send a patch that only removes the above-mentioned array.

Thanks,

Fabio
