I'm getting slightly annoyed that we now apparently have two duplicate
rtlwifi drivers (with the same name!) and I'm being spammed by staging
patches. Was this really a smart thing to do? And what will be the
future of these two drivers?

(Of course this is not directed to Dan, he is just fixing bugs found by
smatch, but more like a general question.)
