This driver if for MT7610 chip. There are lot of similarities between the drivers, but there are bunch of differences too. And in the future development of mt76x0, due to integration into mt76 and mt76x2u and adding support for PCIe chips, the differences against mt7601u will be much be bigger. > Also I noticed that mt76 is missing an entry in MAINTAINERS file?

I think the best option would be to get some commitment from Mediatek if that possible, maybe Sean Wang could aggree to be the maintainer ? :-) Thanks Stanislaw
