I can make this change when I pull the patch into the pending branch.
I'd like to see a public Reviewed-by before doing so.
Also note that, except for anything critical, I'm not taking any patches into
ath-next until the upcoming v6.17 merge window closes and all changes made to
Linus' tree have been backmerged via net-next => wireless-next => ath-next.
