It's v6.17-rc6 (-rc eve), so I don't plan to send a pull-request.

Originally I plan to send the last pull-request to v6.18 today, so I did
review this patchset yesterday to see if I can merge it before sending. 
Since only two or three minor changes are needed, I can wait a while and
send the pull-request next Monday if you can re-spin the patchset this
weekend. 

If not, I can still merge this patchset in v6.18-rc cycle to rtw tree.
However, this might cause merge conflict with -next, so I don't prefer
this. Upper maintainers need to spend extra time to resolve conflicts.
