Merge branch 'for-davem' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-next

John W. Linville says:

====================
Please pull this batch of wireless updates intended for the 3.15
stream!

For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:

"We have some cleanups and minor fixes as well as userspace API
improvements from a lot of people, extended VHT support for radiotap
from Emmanuel, CSA improvements from Andrei, Luca and Michal. I've also
included my work on hwsim to make dynamic registration of radios
possible."

Along with that, we get the usual round of updates to ath9k,
brcmfmac, mwifiex, wcn36xx, and the ti drivers -- nothing particularly
noteworthy, mostly just random updates and refactoring.

Also included is a pull of the wireless tree, intended to resolve
some potential merge issues.
