I was using successfully the rtl8180 driver but after last git-pull the
network interface (wlan0) is not anymore created.
I have discovered the problem: there has been a change in mac80211, commit
3fc7826b95521e40cf53f63437a5fdcc24e54ac4. The problem is that the bit
NL80211_IFTYPE_STATION is not set during the hardware initialization.
I guess that the problem might be solved inserting the following line of code
dev->wiphy->interface_modes = BIT(NL80211_IFTYPE_STATION);
somewhere in rtl8180_dev.c but I don't know which is the right point to do so.
Regards,
Fabio
