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.

As the driver is in mainline now we can remove such dependencies.

Staging: rt2860: Ported v1.7.1.1 changes into v1.8.0.0, becoming v1.8.1.1
When RaLink released rt2860 v1.7.0.0, it lacked proper support for both WEP
and WPA/WPA2 encryption. Either was possible, but the module had to be
compiled to support only one or the other, never both.
Since the EeePC was the most common device with this hardware (and these
users were complaining to RaLink that WPA/WPA2 encryption didn't work)
RaLink released a fix as an "eeepc-specific" version of this driver, v1.7.1.1
Unfortunately, when v1.8.0.0 was released, this WPA/WPA2 fix was never
included.
What complicates things further is that RaLink has no interest in
continuing work on this Linux driver for their hardware.
This commit ports the changes introduced in v1.7.1.1 into the v1.8.0.0
release, upgrading the kernel's module to v1.8.1.1

This is the Ralink RT2860 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.
