10	  This is an alternative driver for various Realtek RTL8XXX
11	  parts written to utilize the Linux mac80211 stack.
12	  The driver is known to work with a number of RTL8723AU,
13	  RL8188CU, RTL8188RU, RTL8191CU, RTL8192CU, RTL8723BU, RTL8192EU,
14	  RTL8188FU, RTL8188EU, RTL8710BU (aka RTL8188GU), and RTL8192FU
15	  devices.

17	  This driver is under development and has a limited feature
18	  set. In particular it does not yet support 40MHz channels
19	  and power management. However it should have a smaller
20	  memory footprint than the vendor drivers and benefits
21	  from the in kernel mac80211 stack.
22
23	  It can coexist with drivers from drivers/staging/rtl8723au,
24	  drivers/staging/rtl8192u, and drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi,
25	  but you will need to control which module you wish to load.
26
27	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will
28	  be called rtl8xxxu.  If unsure, say N.
