These patches are based on top of Luca's patches.

This was only basically tested that it compiles against kernel 4.4, 4.9 
and 4.14 on x86 and mips be in OpenWrt.

Hauke Mehrtens (10):
  backports: Remove ssb and bcma
  backports: Remove NFC support
  copy: Add crc32poly.h
  dependencies: Make RSI_COEX coexistence depend on kernel >= 4.17
  dependencies: Make WIL6210 depend on kernel >= 4.8
  dependencies: make hostap and atmel depend on kernel >= 4.18
  patches: make mt76 use skb_pad() instead of __skb_pad()
  patches: remove .coredump from struct driver for kernel < 4.16
  backports: Make netdev destructor spatch apply correctly again
  patches: Do not remove linux/kmemleak.h include

I applied pretty much everything, but the result isn't looking so
great...

But that's sort of looking only perhaps? 3.10-4.2 fail on skcipher
backport, which was pretty much always doomed given the crypto API
complexity ...

Thanks for applying the patches.

If it is only needed for the drivers using lib80211, I think we can make
them depend on kernel >= 4.2.

Did you test compile it on drvbp1.linux-foundation.org, or do I have to
update the installed kernel versions there?

Indeed. I need to do a new run with that fixed (see my lib80211 skcipher
removal patch), but was waiting for Luca's updated iwlwifi patch since I
fail on that every time too.

I did, but it's probably restricted to my account.
