From: Jes Sorensen <Jes.Sorensen@xxxxxxxxxx>

Hi,

I finally found some time to work on rtl8xxxu again. Since the
previously version posted some months ago, I fixed up a number of
bugs. I also added support for a range of other Realtek based USB
devices. The driver now supports rtl8723au, rtl8188cu, rtl8188ru, and
rtl8192cu. It should work on rtl8191cu devices as well.

Per default only devices I have actually tested will be enabled. If
you are interested in trying it out with other 8188cu/8188ru/819[12]cu
dongles, you need to enable CONFIG_RTL8XXXU_UNTESTED. Please report
test results back to me.

Note if you enable this driver, it may clash with CONFIG_RTL8192U,
CONFIG_R8723AU, and CONFIG_RTL8192CU (rtlwifi). Please pay attention
to which module you load and/or use modprobe blacklists.

This driver is still work in progress. I have used it as my primary
driver for the last six months, and I find it to be very stable. It
seems suitable for mainline inclusion at this point.

Cheers,
Jes
