Dunno if this is acceptable. I'm running with the below, or variations thereof, for all kernels with rtxxxxsta configured due to Yast having an attitude problem with "ra" as an interface name, and me not knowing where yast stores it's attitude. This one is against .git. Staging: rt2870: Rename devices ra->wlan The rest of the known universe prefers wlanN for wireless interface names, to the point that some distro configuration tools, such as opensuse's Yast, don't even allow the user to enter a name, and simply pre-select "wlan".
