Jakub Kicinski 71e0ad3451 wireless-next patches for v6.13
The first -next "new features" pull request for v6.13. This is a big
 one as we have not been able to send one earlier. We have also some
 patches affecting other subsystems: in staging we deleted the rtl8192e
 driver and in debugfs added a new interface to save struct
 file_operations memory; both were acked by GregKH.
 
 Because of the lib80211/libipw move there were quite a lot of
 conflicts and to solve those we decided to merge net-next into
 wireless-next.
 
 Currently there's one conflict in
 Documentation/networking/net_cachelines/net_device.rst. To fix that
 just remove the iw_public_data line:
 
 https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241011121014.674661a0@canb.auug.org.au/
 
 And when net is merged to net-next there will be another simple
 conflict in in net/mac80211/cfg.c:
 
 https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241024115523.4cd35dde@canb.auug.org.au/
 
 Major changes:
 
 cfg80211/mac80211
 
 * stop exporting wext symbols
 
 * new mac80211 op to indicate that a new interface is to be added
 
 * support radio separation of multi-band devices
 
 Wireless Extensions
 
 * move wext spy implementation to libiw
 
 * remove iw_public_data from struct net_device
 
 brcmfmac
 
 * optional LPO clock support
 
 ipw2x00
 
 * move remaining lib80211 code into libiw
 
 wilc1000
 
 * WILC3000 support
 
 rtw89
 
 * RTL8852BE and RTL8852BE-VT BT-coexistence improvements

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
