Here is some info from Gabor (shouldn't this be reply-all rather than just me): ------------------ The v1 and v2 look identical (though the label on the device indicates the revision). The v3 looks completely different. They all have different USB IDs (v1 is stock RT73, v2 has a custom ID, while v3 is AFAIK stock RT2070). ------------------ I guess to be informative, may I suggest adding '(for v1 see rt73usb, and v3 see rt3070)' or something similiar to the 'v2' change? It is fair customary in Kconfig to mention even alternative/competing drivers for the same device. And when you add v3 support to the rt3070 driver, a reverse mention may be appropriate. (I guess I am spending far too long on this discussion - but I reckon, the purpose of a non-code-changing change is meant to be informative, so one might want to be as informative as appropriate without being too wordy...) > > commit aeeab4ff06b8e29cfe2fe730ba626f7e2487ba03 > Author: John W.
