These 3 drivers contain much duplicated (triplicated) code, so
building them as built-in results in many errors like:
(.text+0x1b160): multiple definition of `ieee80211_sta_ps_sleep'
Prevent this configuration by making them all buildable only as
loadable modules (similar to the vt665[56] patch last week).

The TODO list includes switching this driver to use the common EEPROM
routines in EEPROM_93CX.

Now that active development has begun on a mainline version of
a driver for the RTL8187SE that should be called rtl8187se, there
is a conflict with the driver in staging with the same name.
To solve the conflict, rename the driver in staging to r8187se.

These drivers can (erroneously) be enabled even when
CONFIG_NET=n, CONFIG_NETDEVICES=n, CONFIG_WLAN=n, etc.
Stop this.

After the incorporation of the patch entitled "wext: refactor", some
of the wireless drivers in drivers/staging fail to build because they
need to have CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT and CONFIG_WEXT_PRIV defined.

rtl8187se uses wireless extensions so it needs to depend on
WIRELESS_EXT (or select it).
rtl8187se uses fields in struct net_device that are only present
if CONFIG_COMPAT_NET_DEV_OPS=y, so it needs to depend on
that symbol also.

This is a driver for the Realtek 8187 "SE" wireless PCI devices in some
netbook computers (MSI Wind, and others). It includes its own copy of
the ieee80211 stack, but it is compiled into the driver to prevend
duplicate symbol issues.
This version comes from Ralink with no authorship, but it is based
on an old version of the rtl8180 driver from Andrea Merello. It was
hacked up a bit to get it to build properly within the kernel tree and
to properly handle the merged wireless stack within the driver.
