Merge tag 'mac80211-next-for-davem-2018-03-29' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jberg/mac80211-next
Johannes Berg says: ==================== We have a fair number of patches, but many of them are from the first bullet here: * EAPoL-over-nl80211 from Denis - this will let us fix some long-standing issues with bridging, races with encryption and more * DFS offload support from the qtnfmac folks * regulatory database changes for the new ETSI adaptivity requirements * various other fixes and small enhancements ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
