096c55d1de Staging: rtl8187se: Fix oops and memory poison caused by builtin ieee80211.
when modprobe and removing rtl8187se ( just for testing, i do not have
that card , and oops and a memory poison error happens on the builtin
ieee80211 of that driver.  I dont know if they will port it to the
current ieeee80221 instead of the builtin ones, but just in case i
attach a proposed fix for that problem.

- Change for loop on ieee80211_crypto_deinit for list_for_each_safe to
  remove items. Is there an spinlock needed here?
- Call ieee80211_crypto_deinit after exiting all registerd crypto protocols.

69e09c983e Staging: rtl8187se: fix Kconfig dependencies
rtl8187se uses wireless extensions so it needs to depend on
WIRELESS_EXT (or select it).

rtl8187se uses fields in struct net_device that are only present
if CONFIG_COMPAT_NET_DEV_OPS=y, so it needs to depend on
that symbol also.

1fa511ad65 Staging: rtl8187se: remove duplicate pci ids
We only want to load for one PCI device, the "SE" device.  The other PCI
devices that this driver supports are already supported by the existing
rtl8187 module.

bac6cd1829 Staging: rtl8187se: make the built module be the proper name
If we are calling this the rtl8187se module, let's actually build
a module with that name.

c8d86be387 Staging: add rtl8187se driver
This is a driver for the Realtek 8187 "SE" wireless PCI devices in some
netbook computers (MSI Wind, and others).  It includes its own copy of
the ieee80211 stack, but it is compiled into the driver to prevend
duplicate symbol issues.

This version comes from Ralink with no authorship, but it is based
on an old version of the rtl8180 driver from Andrea Merello.  It was
hacked up a bit to get it to build properly within the kernel tree and
to properly handle the merged wireless stack within the driver.
