Hi,

My tree contains an updated version of these patches now:
https://git.lede-project.org/?p=lede/hauke/staging.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/mac80211

changes:
 * use backports-4.13.1
  * This is now generated from the official backports repository, most
of the patches used for the older version are upstreamed to backports
project now and some new were added.
 * When more than 1 station joined it was not possible to unload the
mac80211 based driver, this was fixed by backporting this patch from
upstream:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/net/mac80211?id=bde59c475e0883e4c4294bcd9b9c7e08ae18c828
