openwrt-xburst/package/mac80211/patches/403-ath9k-fix-invalid-mac-address-handling.patch
hauke 22319bbae1 [mac80211] Update compat-wireless to 2009-03-18
Removing of include/net/ieee80211_radiotap.h is not needed, because it is only used by this compat-wireless.
There are changes in that file and compat-wireless needs the newest version.

Some more symbols are deactivated in the default config file, this will make building faster.
The rt2800pci patches are up to date now.
