do you think that's a good idea to mix several layers in one patch series?
Won't it be better to push some basic MAC support and only after the drivers?
I see that way a little bit easier for code review.

But if you don't think so, it's not a problem.

Hmm, sounds good. I agree with this roadmap. :)

The changes are really small and they don't affect the code
structure/logic: using of common style in debug output, rewrite
'fetch_skb' functions, remove several unused lines etc...
