In fact I never used your driver...

I developped this driver in December 2011/January 2012. At that time,
you were at the version 2 of the code. I looked at the code of v2 and
found it not very clear... There were some missing things like the check
of the CRC of frames, checkpatch was complaining everywhere, etc. This
is why I decided to write my own driver.

I didn't posted it until now because I had hope that yours would have
been improved, finalized and included in linux version 3.4 or 3.5
(that's what you said in one of your previous mail).
As it is not the case after almost one year after v1 of your patch, I
decided today to post my version of the driver so that maybe we don't
miss next kernel version.

Kind regards,
