Patch 01-03 fix some bugs.
Patch 04-09 contain some feature ports from Maemo Fremantle and wl1271.
Patch 10-18 implement (mainly) monitor mode and packet injection.
Sorry for the partly broken patches, I thought I configured my client the
right way. I tried to stop the mails at my mailserver, but it was mostly
already too late.

I tested the patches with compat-wireless and a modified fremantle 2.6.28 kernel
on my Nokia N900.

It would be interesting if I missed some features. I diffed the drivers, but I
am not 100% sure if I overlooked something useful.
One thing I haven't included in this patchset is the netlink interface from the
fremantle code for NVS loading because I thought it wouldn't be accepted anyway.

How did you test the patches? For example, what hardware did you use
etc.
About the code from fremantle kernels. Few weeks ago nokia sent me
privately the original patches from their internal git tree, I gave
some comments and never heard back. So, in theory I should have all
the fremantle patches somewhere in my email archives. I would just
need to clean them up and send them here. I'll go over your patches
and let's see what we should do.

No problem. But whenever you resend your patchset, please add a
revision to them, otherwise it's impossible to know which patch is
which. Good way is to use tag "[PATCH v2]" or similar.

Just tried this on pandora board with 2.6.37 kernel and everything
seems to be fine. Haven't tested monitor mode or packet injection
though, so for fixes and feature ports:

I was the one trying to organize this, Luciano managed this from Nokia
side and Yuri (CCed) did the porting to newer kernels. However several
patches were missing attribution and things somehow got stuck there.
As for this series, I'll try to test them on pandora hardware over this week.

Correct, it's definitely not for upstream. nl80211 now has testmode
interface which can be used for that, but as wl1251 hardware is so old
already I doubt anyone has any interest on.
I have now read and commented some of your patches, I will go through
the rest today. But 18 patches in a patchset is quite a lot. To make
it easier to review and manage the patches I would recommend to split
them to smaller and logical patchsets.
