BTW, netperf shows that r8712u can transmit at ~80 and receive at ~60 Mbps when connected to a 270 Mbps AP. As Realtek lists this as capable of 150 Mbps, x86_64 is getting the max transmit rate that we might expect.
On x86 32bit, I get a sustained 94Mbps transmit to a 300Mbps AP, which seems pretty good - why I'm keen to get this to work for my ARM target.
@Ian: Ali Bahar submitted a number of patches to GregKH updating the driver to the latest Realtek version. As the git repo is not available due to kernel.org, and I have not found an alternate location that Greg has established, I am attaching them here.
Many thanks for that. I've applied all Ali's patches you attached, and tried on my Blackfin host, both with and without musb DMA enabled - no improvement, sadly. I had also tried the 2.6.6.0.20110401 driver from Realtek without any change in behaviour. May try adding some liberal debug trace next, to compare to operation on x86.
