I just turned on all wireless drivers in my mpc5200 build and they all
built ok. I'm using Linus' current git tree.
rt2501 (WUSB54GC) is in the current kernel.
AFAIK these should work. Some times there are minor problems with
endianess but they aren't hard to fix. The usual error is loading the
firmware byte swapped.
