But that's a Netgear WG111v2 ? We are talking about Linksys
WUSB54GC-EU and its v1/v2/v3 . I am just thinking that if it is for
informative purposes (for those who actually selectively build their
kernel modules), adding a bit more info, such as suggesting to use
rt73usb/rt2070/rt3070 modules, won't hurt.

Incidentally I like to know a bit more about this patch - presumably
Marcin has such a device? I am also a little curious, as this commit
should be accompanied by a corresponding update in another Kconfig
which supports the device? I am not trying to be picky, but for an
informative (non-code-changing) patch, it can be more informative.
