Hm, I thought this would be in better shape than it is.

Right now we have 107 .c and .h files in drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/ that
come to a total of 44597 lines.

So we are taking double the size here?

I'm all for putting a "better" driver in here, but this feels odd to
me... Is there major new functionality here that is not in the existing
driver to justify this?

Ok, let's see how this goes, I'll give it a few weeks to see how much
can easily be fixed up to hopefully get back to at least close the
existing driver size...

thanks,

greg k-h
