How did you choose iwl-next as the target tree?
The closest match to that in the MAINTAINERS file is this:
INTEL WIRELESS WIFI LINK (iwlwifi)
M: Miri Korenblit <miriam.rachel.korenblit@xxxxxxxxx>
L: linux-wireless@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
S: Supported
W: https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/iwlwifi
T: git https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/iwlwifi/iwlwifi-next.git/
F: drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/
but the patches don't touch any of the Intel wifi drivers.
I expect that you want net-next there, but I could just be confuzed.
thanks.
