So just for clarity, a pull request tailored for Linus:

The following changes since commit 3e9848403ad59c53b31facb30b43ca80135ae0b9:
  Eric Dumazet (1):
        pktgen: Fix netdevice unregister

are available in the git repository at:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-2.6.git security

Johannes Berg (2):
      mac80211: fix two remote exploits
      mac80211: fix spurious delBA handling
