DST is dead, no one is using it and upstream
has abandoned it, so remove it from the tree because
it is not going anywhere.

d7edf47947 Staging: sm7xx: add a new framebuffer driver
Yeeloong netbook has a sm712 video card, need this driver, but it is not
ready to upstream yet, so, go to drivers/staing at first.

This source code is originally from Silicon Motion Technology Corp, and
maintained at http://dev.lemote.com/code/linux_loongson for YeeLoong
netbook. I have done a lot of cleanups for it and merged it into my git
repository at http://dev.lemote.com/code/rt4ls.

Thanks to Simon for testing it on a little-endian x86 platform.

Thanks to Olivier Croset <olivier.croset@actis-computer.com> for
reporting the problem about __BIG_ENDIAN compiling problem and send a
relative patch.

The suspend/resume and blank support are contributed by Jason from
Silicon Motion Technology.

ad988ba5c0 Staging: rtl8187se: Rename staging driver to avoid name conflict with mainline driver
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.

36c7928c3e Staging: add rt3090 wireless driver
This is the vendor driver for the Ralink RT3090 chipset.

It should be later cleaned and ported to use the existing rt2x00
infrastructure or just replaced by the proper version.

[ Unfortunately since it follows the same design/implementation like
  rt{286,287,307}0 drivers (already present in the staging tree)
  it is highly unlikely that it will see much love from the wireless
  development community.. ]

However since the development of the cleaner/proper version can take
significant time lets give distros (i.e. openSUSE seems to already
have the package with the original vendor driver) and users "something"
to use in the meantime.

I forward ported it to 2.6.31-rc1, ported to the Linux build system
and did some initial cleanups.  More fixes/cleanups to come later
(it seems that the driver can be made to share most of its code with
the other Ralink drivers already present in the staging tree).
