Does this driver has any relation to mwifiex? Perhaps the same
maintainer team, etc.? Could consider moving all the Marvell drivers
into one directory, but not really necessary I guess.

Actually I would want to start adding vendor directories for wireless
drivers, just like drivers/net/ethernet has, to cleanup the directory
structure. So for example this driver we would have
drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwlwifi and later we would start moving
existing drivers to vendor drivers as well. Thoughts?

Another remark on this. Do you propose to add a vendor Kconfig level as well?

Right now our umbrella folder is brcm80211. I am fine changing it to
broadcom if explicit vendor names are preferred although brcm80211 still
has my personal preference.

Regards,
Arend
