This is the version bump in the git repo:

I'm not sure it's a regression, but I just couldn't get the attributes
to work with 1.0.6 either with and without Johannes' changes to upgrade
it to the 1.0.6 syntax.

This is the cocci that doesn't work (which is supposed to work with
1.0.6):

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/backports/backports.git/tree/patches/0027-genl-const/genl-const.cocci

And, IIRC, this is the file that it's supposed to alter:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/net/wireless/nl80211.c
