name is a const char * by default. This type should be ok for r8188eu.

Hi Phil,

Looks ok to me, thanks. I would consider using a cover letter style
[PATCH 00/10] style approach as an addition in future though, just my
personal opinion.

Thanks.

This series is a mixed bag of things I found while poking around in the
code. So I didn't think there was anything useful to say in a cover
letter. Still, I see your point, it makes sense for a patch series to
have a cover letter, I'll add one for future patch series.

Best regards,
Martin
Reasonable point for sure - it is your call ultimately, I like your
work in any case, so many thanks :-)

Regards,
Phil
