Daniel Drake 6f014362c6 [PATCH] zd1211rw: Add AL2230S RF support
ZD1211 appears to be back in production: a number of new devices have
been appearing! Some of them are using new radios.

This patch adds support for the next generation AL2230 RF chip which has
been spotted in a few new devices.

[As this patch was too late for 2.6.21, the kernel was modified to reject
AL2230S devices because for me and others, the devices silently failed (and
this looked like a driver bug). After doing so, a few people reported that
AL2230S devices were working correctly for them even before AL2230S support was
present. I'd like to propose that we fix both situations by backporting
the AL2230S support into 2.6.21-stable]

	README
	------

	This directory is mostly for Wireless LAN drivers, in their
various incarnations (ISA, PCI, Pcmcia...).
	This separate directory is needed because a lot of driver work
on different bus (typically PCI + Pcmcia) and share 95% of the
code. This allow the code and the config options to be in one single
place instead of scattered all over the driver tree, which is never
100% satisfactory.

	Note : if you want more info on the topic of Wireless LANs,
you are kindly invited to have a look at the Wireless Howto :
		http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/
	Some Wireless LAN drivers, like orinoco_cs, require the use of
Wireless Tools to be configured :

	Special notes for distribution maintainers :
	1) wvlan_cs will be discontinued soon in favor of orinoco_cs
	2) Please add Wireless Tools support in your scripts

	Have fun...
