David S. Miller	bb60b8b35a	Merge tag 'mac80211-next-for-davem-2017-01-13' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jberg/mac80211-next ... Johannes Berg says: ==================== For 4.11, we seem to have more than in the past few releases: * socket owner support for connections, so when the wifi manager (e.g. wpa_supplicant) is killed, connections are torn down - wpa_supplicant is critical to managing certain operations, and can opt in to this where applicable * minstrel & minstrel_ht updates to be more efficient (time and space) * set wifi_acked/wifi_acked_valid for skb->destructor use in the kernel, which was already available to userspace * don't indicate new mesh peers that might be used if there's no room to add them * multicast-to-unicast support in mac80211, for better medium usage (since unicast frames can use *much* higher rates, by ~3 orders of magnitude) * add API to read channel (frequency) limitations from DT * add infrastructure to allow randomizing public action frames for MAC address privacy (still requires driver support) * many cleanups and small improvements/fixes across the board ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Jonathan Corbet	0bb33e25e5	docs: Move the 802.11 guide into the driver-api manual ... Put this documentation with the other driver docs and try to keep the top level reasonably clean.
