commit befdbc51cc69c01cd412ad2429960b9c3042f97c is the current
wireless-testing head.

This iteration of wireless-testing seems to have grown some
warnings.  Some of them come from a new __must_check annotation of
cfg80211_inform_bss, while others are simply unused or uninitialized
variables.  In any case, I would prefer not to see them.

Please check the wireless-testing build and attempt to squash any
warnings that can be reasonably squashed.  Those who do not do so
will be subject to irritated sighs over IRC, drunken emails about
my new DVD rental service, and accusations of making unwanted sexual
advances toward me.  You've been warned.

John
