0009           This is an alternative driver for various Realtek RTL8XXX
0010           parts written to utilize the Linux mac80211 stack.
0011           The driver is known to work with a number of RTL8723AU,
0012           RL8188CU, RTL8188RU, RTL8191CU, and RTL8192CU devices
0013 
0014           This driver is under development and has a limited feature
0015           set. In particular it does not yet support 40MHz channels
0016           and power management. However it should have a smaller
0017           memory footprint than the vendor drivers and benefits
0018           from the in kernel mac80211 stack.
0019 
0020           It can coexist with drivers from drivers/staging/rtl8723au,
0021           drivers/staging/rtl8192u, and drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi,
0022           but you will need to control which module you wish to load.
0023 
0024           To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will
0025           be called r8xxxu.  If unsure, say N.
