The RTL8822BE, an 802.11ac wireless network card, is now appearing in
new computers. Its driver is being placed in staging to reduce the time
that users of this new card will have access to in-kernel drivers.
This commit adds the code for the new r8822be driver.

The RTL8822BE, an 802.11ac wireless network card, is now appearing in
new computers. Its driver is being placed in staging to reduce the time
that users of this new card will have access to in-kernel drivers.
New Realtek wireless devices have a new method for PHY control and
dynamic management. The RTL8822BE is the first of these devices, thus
there is additional code required.
In the final version, this code will be a separate module; however,
it is combined with the r8822be driver to minimize the interference
with the drivers in the wireless tree.

new computers. Its driver is being placed in staging to reduce the time
that users of this new card will have access to in-kernel drivers.
New Realtek devices implement a common sub-driver to control the MAC
layer. The RTL8822BE is the first of these devices, thus its introduction
involves some extra code. In the wireless tree, this will be a separate
module; however, it is compiled into the 8822be driver here.

This commit adds the routines needed for BT coexistence with the
new driver.

This commit copies the existing routines from .../rtlwifi/btcoexist/
into staging. There are no changes other than removing all EXPORT
statements, and the fixing of checkpatch messages. The latter will
be backported to the wireless tree.

that users of this new card will have access to in-kernel drivers.
This commit copies the code that currently constitutes the rtlwifi and
rtl_pci mini drivers. This material is copied into staging to prevent
any undo interaction between the existing drivers and this new one.
The only changes in this code are the removal of all export statements,
and the fixing of some checkpatch messages. The latter will be backported
into the wireless tree.
