The driver at76c50x-usb is unable to authenticate with an AP since
kernel 2.6.31 for the following reason: The join command of the firmware
needs to be sent with the right bssid before any transmission can start.
Before kernel 2.6.31 mac80211 informed its drivers about the changing
bssid early enough for at76c50x-usb but during the development of 2.6.31
mac80211's behaviour changed. Now a new bssid is set after the
association.

This patch changes the tx routine of the driver at76c50x-usb in such a
way that a new bssid is extracted from an authentication frame and the
join command with that bssid is processed.

This is a driver for usb devices based on at76c50x chipset. This is
a mac80211 port of the original at76_usb driver.

Reverts 02227c28
(Had to be done by hand due to other patches that had come after this.)

Turns out that we don't want the mac80211 port of this driver just yet, as
there is a different driver working on adding this support.

So keep things old and different for now.

This is being reverted at the request of the linux-wireless developers.

This updates drivers/staging/at76_usb to correspond with the latest
version previously available in wireless-testing.

Add the at76_usb wireless driver to the staging tree while the
other kernel driver (out of tree) gets rewritten to use the internal
wireless stack.

This patch comes directly from the Fedora kernel tree, with only the
directory placement of the files changed.
