Dave,

RNDIS is a de facto standard from Microsoft for USB networking devices.
We already have support for ethernet devices, but wireless devices exist
as well.  This series applies some fixes to the current ethernet RNDIS
stuff to co-exist with wireless and adds a wireless RNDIS driver.  I
would like to see it in 2.6.25.

Thanks!

John

Pulled and pushed out to net-2.6, thanks John.

I'm going to review these bits a little bit (as well as the
other merge you just made) before pushing it all out to
Linus.

Thanks!
