Herton's code also seem to distinguish revC/revD/revE of different 
8187B's -
I don't seem to have seen those distinctions in the original vendor 
code, but
maybe I haven't look hard enough :-).
I have not found them either. FWIW, my device is reported as 
RTL8187BvE V0 + rtl8225z2. The decision comes from 
rtl818x_ioread8(priv, (u8 *)0xFFE1), but I don't know what is at that 
address.
In the vendor driver this is commented as being the 8187B hardware version
register (it's a raw value address used in the code with a comment). I should
have commented the line as something like "read 8187b hardware version
register", or may be add a field to struct rtl818x_csr. One more thing to add
to the patch. In fact I would like to have a datasheet or ask to someone that
has to confirm this.
