Ok, I'll do this next week (might take some time, since I need to get familiar with the usb / unusual_devs code). I guess this will mostly go through Greg then? John, please take the patch 1, that adds the USB ID to ar9170usb. It is useful on its own since the device can also be switched with usb_modeswitch from userspace, and it is really trivial.
