Johannes Berg says: ==================== Just a few more changes: - mac80211: allow non-standard VHT MCSes 10/11 - mac80211: add sleepable station iterator for drivers - nl80211: clarify a comment - mac80211: small cleanup to use typed element helpers * tag 'mac80211-next-for-net-next-2022-01-04' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jberg/mac80211-next: mac80211: use ieee80211_bss_get_elem() nl80211: clarify comment for mesh PLINK_BLOCKED state mac80211: Add stations iterator where the iterator function may sleep mac80211: allow non-standard VHT MCS-10/11 ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220104153403.69749-1-johannes@sipsolutions.net Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
