Thanks. Please check that my modifications in the pending branch are
correct:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvalo/ath.git/commit/?h=pending&id=3aec20a8e797b28d32e75291cc070d5913bf6dab

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvalo/ath.git/commit/?h=pending&id=df5b4bec31b0736a453d507762c5b3d098d5c733

I can freely edit commits in the pending branch, it's just a temporary
branch for testing.
