Do you mean wireless-drivers-next or wireless-testing? If the latter,
please note that you cannot really bisect anything on wireless-testing
because it's rebased every time. wireless-drivers-next should be safe to
use for bisection because I don't rebase that unless a major disaster
happens, and IIRC that has not yet happened.

(Well, in theory you can bisect wireless-testing but you have to be
_really_ careful how to bisect and make sure that you follow the history
correctly. Definitely not recommended.)
