Greg Kroah-Hartman 9198099052 Staging: add rt2860 wireless driver
This is the Ralink RT2860 driver from the company that does horrible
things like reading a config file from /etc.  However, the driver that
is currently under development from the wireless development community
is not working at all yet, so distros and users are using this version
instead (quite common hardware on a lot of netbook machines).

So here is this driver, for now, until the wireless developers get a
"clean" version into the main tree, or until this version is cleaned up
sufficiently to move out of the staging tree.

Ported to the Linux build system and cleaned up a bit already by me.

Luis R. Rodriguez 4bd43f507c Staging: add otus Atheros wireless network driver
Initial dump of the otus USB wireless network driver.
It builds properly, but a lot of work needs to be done cleaning
it up before it can be merged into the wireless driver tree.

Linus Torvalds 43e61711d4 Don't ask twice about not including staging drivers
The "Exclude staging drivers" question is there so that we don't build
staging drivers for allyesconfig or allnoconfig settings, but it's very
irritating when you've already said "no" to staging drivers earlier.

There is absolutely no point in declining twice - once you've declined
the staging drivers, you're done.

So make the second question depend on the first question having been
answered in the affirmative.

Greg Kroah-Hartman 0c4b95455f Staging: only build the tree if we really want to
This Kconfig change allows the common 'make allmodconfig' and
'make allyesconfig' build options to skip the staging tree, which is
probably what you want to have happen anyway.

This makes the linux-next developer's life a lot easier so he doesn't
have to worry about changes that break the staging tree, that's for me
to worry about...

Vijay Kumar a14edddac9 Staging: add poch driver
This is the first cut at a driver for the Redrapids Pocket Change
CardBus devices.

Receiving data seems to work properly, but overflows happen on transmit.
Still needs more hardware debugging to work properly.

(cleaned up to use proper driver core api functions by Greg)

Pavel Roskin 99e06e3723 staging: at76_usb wireless driver
Add the at76_usb wireless driver to the staging tree while the
other kernel driver (out of tree) gets rewritten to use the internal
wireless stack.

This patch comes directly from the Fedora kernel tree, with only the
directory placement of the files changed.

Greg Kroah-Hartman 00b3ed1685 Staging: add wlan-ng prism2 usb driver
This adds the wlan-ng prism2 USB driver to the drivers/staging tree.

The code was originally written by the linux-wlan-ng team, patched by
some Novell engineers to properly work on newer kernels, and then hacked
into place in order to get it to build properly in a single subdirectory
within the kernel tree by me.

It supports a wide range of older USB prism2 devices, and contains a
80211 stack to support this single driver.

This is driver for w35und usb wifi -- also in kohjinsha
subnotebook. It should work well enough to associate and ping, but it
obviously needs to be rewritten two more times...

OTOH worst horrors (like embedded wifi stack) should have been fixed
already...

Greg Kroah-Hartman 4d6f6af8d6 Staging: add Alacritech slicoss network driver
This adds the Alacritech slicoss driver to the tree.

This driver is supposed to support:

	Mojave cards (single port PCI Gigabit) both copper and fiber
	Oasis cards (single and dual port PCI-x Gigabit) copper and fiber
	Kalahari cards (dual and quad port PCI-e Gigabit) copper and fiber

The driver was acutally tested on Oasis and Kalahari cards.

TODO:
	- move firmware loading to request_firmware()
	- remove direct memory access of structures
	- any remaining sparse and checkpatch.pl warnings
	- any netdev recommended changes

Greg Kroah-Hartman cfb739b459 Staging: add et131x network driver
This is a driver for the ET1310 network device.

Based on the driver found at https://sourceforge.net/projects/et131x/

Cleaned up immensely by Olaf Hartman <o.hartmann@telovital.com> and Christoph
Hellwig <hch@infradead.org>

Note, the powermanagement options were removed from the vendor provided
driver as they did not build properly at the time.

TODO:
	- kernel coding style cleanups
	- forward port for latest network driver changes
	- kill useless typecasts (e.g. in et1310_phy.c)
	- alloc_etherdev is initializing memory with zero?!?
	- add_timer call in et131x_netdev.c is correct?
	- Add power saving functionality (suspend, sleep, resume)
	- Implement a few more kernel Parameter (set mac )
