68e6c79609 staging: rtl8723au: Stop carrying half the beacon frame header in the stored IE array
This gets rid of the odd carrying of half the beacon frame in the IE
array stored for the network. Instead we rely on the relevant fields
(timestamp, beacon_interval, and capability) stored in struct
wlan_bssid_ex.

Carrying only half the ieee80211_mgmt header led to a number of bugs
and simply obfuscated the code.

I have tried catching all instances relying on these three elements in
the IEs array, but missed cases may still need to be tracked down.

8f5d27084d Merge branch 'i2c/for-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/wsa/linux
Pull i2c new drivers from Wolfram Sang:
 "Here is a pull request from i2c hoping for the "new driver" rule.

  Originally, I wanted to send this request during the merge window, but
  code checkers with very recent additions complained, so a few fixups
  were needed.  So, some more time went by and I merged rc1 to get a
  stable base"

So the "new driver" rule is really about drivers that people absolutely
need for the kernel to work on new hardware, which is not so much the
case for i2c.  So I considered not pulling this, but eventually
relented.

Just for FYI: the whole (and only) point of "new drivers" is not that
new drivers cannot regress things (they can, and they have - by
triggering badly tested code on machines that never triggered that code
before), but because they can bring to life machines that otherwise
wouldn't be useful at all without the drivers.

So the new driver rule is for essential things that actual consumers
would care about, ie devices like networking or disk drivers that matter
to normal people (not server people - they run old kernels anyway, so
