mac80211: rename patches to use all prefixes
After last commit we got few unuset slots (prefixes). Use all available numbers one by one to allow more backports. This doesn't change a single patch (or order), only renames files.

+Subject: [PATCH] ath9k: declare required extra tx headroom
+
+ath9k inserts padding between the 802.11 header and the data area (to
+align it). Since it didn't declare this extra required headroom, this
+led to some nasty issues like randomly dropped packets in some setups.
