Port changes from:
* 2009_0420_RT2860_Linux_STA_V2.1.0.0
* 2009_0302_RT2870_Linux_STA_v2.1.0.0
* 2009_0525_RT3070_Linux_STA_v2.1.1.0
to in-kernel drivers.
From the RT2860 driver release note:
[2.1.0.0]
1. New generation schema for multiple OS porting
2. Fixed Ad-hoc ping failed in noisy environment. (Probe Response has too
many retry packet then cause "not enough space in MgmtRing")
3. Fixed WPA(2)PSK issue when group cipher of AP is WEP40 or WEP104.
4. Modified iwpriv ra0 get_site_survey:
In scan list result: Security shows "NONE" when AP is OPEN/NONE,
shows "WEP" when AP is OPEN/WEP or SHARED/WEP, shows
"WPAPSK(WPA2PSK)/TKIP(AES)" when AP is WPAPSK(WPA2PSK)/TKIP(AES)
shows "WPA(WPA2)/TKIP(AES)" when AP is WPA(WPA2)/TKIP(AES)
5. Support kthread.
6. Add New A band channel list region 15 contains the whole channels in
the A band region 4 and the new CE channel 167,169,171,173
7. Add New IEEE802.11r functionality.
8. Fixed WPA2-Enterprise failed when AP reboot or turn off then turn on.
9. Fixed STA cannot connect to 11B only AP when the setting of is PHY_11GN.
From the RT2870 driver release note:
[V2.1.0.0]
1. New generation schema for multiple OS porting.
2. Fixed Ad-hoc ping failed in noisy environment. (Probe Response has too
many retry packet then cause "not enough space in MgmtRing").
3. Fixed WPS failed with D-Link DIR-628 in 5GHz.
4. Change FastRoaming in DAT file to AutoRoaming.
5. Support kthread.
6. Add New A band channel list region 15 contains the whole channels in
the A band region and the new CE channel 167,169,171,173.
7. New IEEE802.11r functionality.
From the RT3070 driver release note:
Version V2.1.1.0
1. Linux kernel 2.6.29 support.
2. Fix eFuse write from BIN file bug.
Version 2.1.0.0
1. New generation schema for multiple OS porting
2. Fixed Ad-hoc ping failed in noisy environment.
3. Modified iwpriv ra0 get_site_survey:
4. Change FastRoaming in DAT file to AutoRoaming.
5. Support kthread.
6. New IEEE802.11r functionality.
Tested with RT2860 and RT3070 chipsets.

* remove RT30xx ifdefs
* add -DRT3070 to rt2870's EXTRA_CFLAGS
* because of changes in the way that hardware is initialized/accessed
rt3070 driver's firmware should be now also used by rt2870 driver
(this is also done by newer out-of-tree vendor driver versions, i.e.
2.1.0.0, historically in-kernel driver was based on 1.4.0.0 version)
* change RT28xx_CHIP_NAME to RTxx70
* update rt2870's help entry text
* add MODULE_ALIAS("rt3070sta") to rt2870
* update rt3070's dependencies

This is the Ralink RT2870 driver from the company that does horrible
things like reading a config file from /etc. However, the driver that
is currently under development from the wireless development community
is not working at all yet, so distros and users are using this version
instead (quite common hardware on a lot of netbook machines).
So here is this driver, for now, until the wireless developers get a
"clean" version into the main tree, or until this version is cleaned up
sufficiently to move out of the staging tree.
Ported to the Linux build system and cleaned up a bit already by me.
