Hi Dave,

During my long absence some things have accumulated, but there wasn't
actually all that much that could've gone into the last cycle, and a
fix or two was taken care of by others.

The most important thing here is probably the deadlock fix that a few
people have run into on 4.13, but that was only identified now, and
perhaps the 40 MHz fix from Emmanuel that helps avoid iwlwifi firmware
crashes.

Please pull and let me know if there's any problem.

Thanks,
johannes
