Daniel Drake ee30276774 [PATCH] zd1211rw: Consistency for address space constants The zd1211rw address space has confused me once too many times. This patch introduces the following naming notation: Memory space is split into segments (cr, fw, eeprom) and segments may contain components (e.g. boot code inside eeprom). These names are arbitrary and only for the description below: x_START: Absolute address of segment start (previously these were named such as CR_BASE_OFFSET, but they weren't really offsets unless you were considering them as an offset to 0) x_LEN: Segment length x_y_LEN: Length of component y of segment x x_y_OFFSET: Relative address of component y into segment x. The absolute address for this component is (x_START + x_y_OFFSET) I also renamed EEPROM registers to EEPROM data. These 'registers' can't be written to using standard I/O and really represent predefined data from the vendor. Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

	------

	This directory is mostly for Wireless LAN drivers, in their
various incarnations (ISA, PCI, Pcmcia...).
	This separate directory is needed because a lot of driver work
on different bus (typically PCI + Pcmcia) and share 95% of the
code. This allow the code and the config options to be in one single
place instead of scattered all over the driver tree, which is never
100% satisfactory.

	Note : if you want more info on the topic of Wireless LANs,
you are kindly invited to have a look at the Wireless Howto :
		http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/
	Some Wireless LAN drivers, like orinoco_cs, require the use of
Wireless Tools to be configured :
		http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/Tools.html

	Special notes for distribution maintainers :
	1) wvlan_cs will be discontinued soon in favor of orinoco_cs
	2) Please add Wireless Tools support in your scripts

	Have fun...
