Sorry Greg! I did build the module but it was cached. I built the driver again after cleaning it, and I did find a warning related to my patch. I had a question though, I found a warning related to an unused function. Here is the warning:
drivers/staging/rtl8712/rtl871x_mp_ioctl.c:708:12: warning: ‘mp_query_drv_var’ defined but not used [-Wunused-function]
Should I remove this function or should I keep it as is? If it will be removed, I will send it in a different patch.

Sorry again and I will be sending the new patch soon.
