> orinoco_pci.c
orinoco_pci.c is a good candidate for removal. It only supports the
hardware that is already supported by hostap_pci.
Wait wait. I think everybody would rather see hostap go than orinoco
since hostap is a huge complex thing and quite buggy.
The WPA support in orinoco is limited to Agere firmware. Maybe Symbol
firmware will be supported at some point. But adding WPA support for
Intersil firmware would duplicate efforts.
The only thing I would like to change in hostap is that it should
default to managed mode, like other drivers do.
But since there are objections, let's keep orinoco_pci as long as it
doesn't stand in the way of further changes.
