Yes.. Sorry.

I tested it with the latest wireless-next tree. I also didn't see any warnings (maybe I have a different gcc or something) - anyway, sorry about that.
All the eht tests passed for me and should work.
It indeed requires some kernel changes but everything should be there.
I see most of the patchset is applied now, I will test it to see what happened there..
