Cool stuff, a lot of Allwinner devices come with these wifi chips
atm I do not really have time to run any sort of worth-while
tests. But I'll enable this driver in my own local build test kernels
and I will try to use it whenever I use wifi.

Jens, are there any plans to also add support for sdio based variants of
these chips ?  Quite a few devices also come with sdio based variants,
such as the C.H.I.P.
