It's not.

However, Stephen also reported a build failure that you don't want to
pull in, so you can either

* pull in commit 836265d31631 ("wifi: remove iw_public_data from struct
net_device") from before the build failure,

* pull in commit 4991d2e7ad38 ("staging: don't recommend using
lib80211") which is really all you care about (both staging
patches I had are included at that point), or

* give me an hour or so to revert commit aee809aaa2d1 ("wifi: cfg80211:
unexport wireless_nlevent_flush()") which caused a build failure.


But if the conflict is to Linus's tree, is that even going to help?
Seems like I should pull in -rc2 and solve this one and the ks7010 one
that way? Just need to check with net-next?
