You can test to see if it works with that kernel with the following commands (as
root):
modprobe -v ar5523
echo 07d1 3a0d > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/ar5523/new_id
If the device would work by adding that USB ID to the device table, then the
above commands should accomplish the same result. Note - these commands will
need to be re-entered after every reload of ar5523.
