This updates mac80211 to backports version 5.10-rc6.
This is currently only the test version, I will release official
versions of backports in the next days and then update these patches.

Kernel 5.10 should be an LTS kernel so we will get updates for it the
next 5 years, I would prefer to use backports based on this version in
our next release.

Please test this and report error to me.

The changes are also in my stating tree:

Hi,

I haven't received a bug report so far, so this looks good or nobody 
tried this. ;-)


We deiced to not merge this into master before branching as the current 
version based on Linux 5.8 is pretty stable and got a lot of testing.
We plan to merge this into master after branching, then it gets testing 
in master and we will backport this into a minor stable release later to 
be able to provide security updates for the wireless drivers.


The kernel 5.8 does not get any security updates any more and we do not 
have the manpower to maintain this on our own.


A more recent version of these patches is available here:
https://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt/staging/hauke.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/mac80211-5.10
This uses the official backports binaries, I will rebase and update this 
form time to time.

Builds & works with on top of master tree + 5.10-rc6 kernel on mt7621 platform.
And no more annoying warning when loading mac80211 module.

Can you squash these three commints into one?



Having each major version separate might be helpful to track changes more 
easily ...


What is the intermediate commits for in this case? Can't see any reason to
enalgre git history.


Having them can be nice for bisecting in case of trouble.


It would be even easier for me if I squash them together, but I already 
had the case that someone found a bug and it helped to know where it broke.

Having them can be nice for bisecting in case of trouble.

What is the intermediate commits for in this case? Can't see any reason to
enalgre git history.
