Hi,

I just noticed - from the mails passing through - that mwifiex is 
located in net/wireless and that it contains its own functions besides 
those of mac80211, while the description on the wiki mentions that it is 
a driver for Marvell SDIO chips.

Is there any specific reason why it is not using mac80211 and why it is 
located in net/wireless instead of drivers/net/wireless, or is this an 
artifact of past choices that need to be cleaned up?

Thanks,
Wim.
