If you apply Herton's series of 9 patches, you should see a throughput improvement. On my card, I get full performance from the 54M rate (27 Mb/s), whereas the best I could do before those patches was 11 Mb/s. Incidentally, making the Realtek drivers work on x86_64 is not that difficult. In any place that they cast a pointer as (u32), that gets changed to (__kernel_size_t). The other place that is affected is due to changes in the skb buffer parameters tail and data, which are pointers in 32-bit, and offsets in 64-bit systems. The main point is that you cannot ignore any gcc warnings.
