From: Xose Vazquez Perez <hidden>
Date: 2016-03-14 14:54:02
Subsystem: staging subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Greg Kroah-Hartman, Linus Torvalds

People should not waste time and energy working on this staging driver.
At least four drivers were written for this hardware:
 https://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=138358275410975
And there is a replacement using the kernel wireless stack at:
 https://github.com/chunkeey/rtl8192su
Also a fullmac/cfg80211 driver(r92su) is available.
