+Subject: [PATCH v2] rt2x00: zero-out rx_status
In commit 'mac80211: support radiotap vendor namespace RX data'

-The rt2x00 driver does not initializes those fields and
-this can cause unexpected behaviour.
+new fields were added to 'struct ieee80211_rx_status' and those
+fileds must be zeroed. However the rt2x00 driver stores driver
+specific data in the cb array of the rx skbs, so the fields
+might contain garbage and this can cause unexpected behaviour.
The rt2x00 driver from the compat-wireless-2012-12-01
tarball caused the following warning:
