Hi,

This is the last set of patches I have in my queue for the rtl8xxxu
driver, as of today :)

Since the driver has grown to support quite a number of different
chips, I want to split it into multiple files. This will make it
easier to maintain and also eaiser to add support for more chips
without having to constantly touch the core files.

This set renames a bunch of functions to indicate that they are
generic rather than chip specific. I will look at doing the actual
moving around in a set right after the current merge window closes.

Please keep the test reports coming!

I like the renaming of the routines to match the chip generation, but there should be some comments stating the gen to which each device/version belongs. Such comments are not needed now, but could be included when the files are split.

Larry
