This looks a bit big for a fix. Could this be broken-up a bit more?
Perhaps you could enhance the changelog a bit more?
I had used a scatter-gun approach to finding the missing parts, and I did not
take the time to see which changes were crucial, and which were not.
Now that I knew what it took, I was able to eliminate a lot of the patch that
can be deferred for 3.19.
The commit message and the changelog for the new version are
Changes in the vendor driver were added to rtlwifi, but some updates
to rtl8192se were missed, and the driver could neither scan nor connect.
There are other changes that will enhance performance, but this minimal
set fixes the basic functionality.

Will that be OK? I need to do more testing, but V2 of the patch should be ready
for submission by tomorrow.
Thanks,
Larry
