Can you update that page to reflect the latest information?
Its out of date now.

Again, death to this. I don't care what other drivers do, this
is silly practice.

You also still use generic routine names, please clean those
up. Few examples: tx_complete() rx_handle(), iftype_nl2wmi(),
and I'm sure there are plenty others, please prefix
these for the driver.

Any reason why this small file is required? Why not just stuff it into
one of the other header files?

You didn't also address my comments regarding WIL6210_ISR_COR #ifdef code.

The second patch no longer applies as a new driver was merged.

Apart from all this, looks good.
