Cover letter [PATCH 0/3] mac80211: HT rate reporting in RX status
This series enhances the driver API to allow HT rates to be reported to mac80211. The first patch includes the needed changes for mac80211 and the second one changes ath9k to use the new variables. The third patch updates the radiotap format based on the version used in FreeBSD. This is also supported by wireshark.
I would like to get the first two patches into the upstream kernel releases, but the third one could remain only in wireless-testing until the radiotap fields have been standardized more officially. Anyway, these have been used in FreeBSD for ages and I would also be fine with just including this in Linux releases as-is.
