Greg Kroah-Hartman 8052d7dd4e staging: rtl8*: fix my email address up
For some reason I had an old linux.com address in these TODO files,
point to my linuxfoundation.org address as that works properly here.

Paul E. McKenney bacb6de62c staging: Additional item for rtl8188eu TODO list
The rtw_recv_indicatepkt() function in the file named
drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/os_dep/recv_linux.c has this strange code:

	rcu_read_lock();
	rcu_dereference(padapter->pnetdev->rx_handler_data);
	rcu_read_unlock();

This code has no effect.  Normally, you would assign the result of
rcu_dereference() to some variable, but it is not clear from the
code what variable that would be.  Therefore, this patch applies to
the TODO file instead of the code itself.

Larry Finger 691dd0b7d2 staging: r8188eu: Convert driver to use external firmware
As originally submitted, this driver acquired its firmware from data
statements embedded in the source code. This information has been extracted
into a binary file that has been accepted into the linux-firmware git
repo as commit ffc47f1 entitled "rtlwifi: Add new firmware files for
rtl8188eu". This patch switches the driver to use this file, and deletes
the firmware data from the source. The TODO list is also updated.
