Dave, Please pull these fixes for the 3.8 stream.
Gabor Juhos provides and rt2x00 fix to properly clear-out the skb->cb
for reporting tx_status. Recent changes made this necessary where it
previously was not.
Vladimir Kondratiev gives us a fix for a build issue that caused some
ath9k devices to be skipped in the build based on unrelated config
choices.
Please let me know if there are problems!
Thanks,
John
