Thanks for the feedback. I'm heavily inspired by the wl12xx code so I guess
the style suites you :)

Will fix.

No DOS line endings here. Probably chewed somewhere along the way.

Will fix.

Hmmm. That's legacy from the FreeBSD driver. All those structs are
copy-pasted from here:

http://svn.freebsd.org/base/stable/9/sys/dev/usb/wlan/if_uathreg.h

I would prefer to keep as close as possible to that file but if it's
an issue I can certainly change that.

I'll respin the patches asap.

Cheers,

Pontus
