Hi All,

I know from various questions in the past that a number of ARM devices
come with realtek wifi interfaces. A new driver the a lot of the
realtek usb wifi devices has landed in the 4.4 kernel. All the gory
details are in the commit log [1] it's not a fully featured driver
just yet but should work well for the standard connect to your AP use
case.

 It would be great if those of you with such devices could test a
rawhide kernel and report back good and/or bad experiences.

Cheers,
Peter
