5ca0121ff2 Staging: add USB serial Quatech driver
Add support for all Quatech usb to serial devices.

Based on an original driver from Quatech.

Cleaned up and forward ported by me.

It's a mess, uses it's own tty layer interface, and the coding style is
horrible.

e642f09951 Staging: add rt3070 wireless driver
This is the Ralink RT3070 driver from the company that does horrible
things like reading a config file from /etc.  However, the driver that
is currently under development from the wireless development community
is not working at all yet, so distros and users are using this version
instead (quite common hardware on a lot of netbook machines).

So here is this driver, for now, until the wireless developers get a
"clean" version into the main tree, or until this version is cleaned up
sufficiently to move out of the staging tree.

Ported to the Linux build system, fixed lots of build issues, forward
ported to the current kernel version, and other minor cleanups were all
done by me.

d52b3d9c72 Staging: add heci driver
The Intel Management Engine Interface (aka HECI: Host Embedded
Controller Interface ) enables communication between the host OS and
the Management Engine firmware. MEI is bi-directional, and either the
host or Intel AMT firmware can initiate transactions.

The core hardware architecture of Intel Active Management Technology
(Intel AMT) is resident in firmware. The micro-controller within the
chipset's graphics and memory controller (GMCH) hub houses the
Management Engine (ME) firmware, which implements various services
on behalf of management applications.

Some of the ME subsystems that can be access via MEI driver:

- Intel(R) Quiet System Technology (QST) is implemented as a firmware
subsystem  that  runs in the ME.  Programs that wish to expose the
health monitoring and fan speed control capabilities of Intel(R) QST
will need to use the MEI driver to communicate with the ME sub-system.
- ASF is the "Alert Standard Format" which is an DMTF manageability
standard. It is implemented in the PC's hardware and firmware, and is
managed from a remote console.

Most recent Intel desktop chipsets have one or more of the above ME
services. The MEI driver will make it possible to support the above
features on Linux and provides applications access to the ME and it's
features.

14c0b3ed4c Staging: Add stlc45xx, wi-fi driver for stlc4550/4560
This patch adds a new driver called stlc45xx, which supports wi-fi chipsets
stlc4550 and stlc4560 from ST-NXP Wireless. The chipset can be found, for
example, from Nokia N800 and N810 products.

The driver is implemented based on the firmware interface information
published by ST-NXP Wireless here:

Currently only SPI interface is supported.

43e61711d4 Don't ask twice about not including staging drivers
The "Exclude staging drivers" question is there so that we don't build
staging drivers for allyesconfig or allnoconfig settings, but it's very
irritating when you've already said "no" to staging drivers earlier.

There is absolutely no point in declining twice - once you've declined
the staging drivers, you're done.

So make the second question depend on the first question having been
answered in the affirmative.

	- any remaining sparse and checkpatch.pl warnings
	- any netdev recommended changes

Many thanks to Lior Dotan <liodot@gmail.com> for help with the cleanup

cfb739b459 Staging: add et131x network driver
This is a driver for the ET1310 network device.

Based on the driver found at https://sourceforge.net/projects/et131x/

Cleaned up immensely by Olaf Hartman <o.hartmann@telovital.com> and Christoph
Hellwig <hch@infradead.org>

Note, the powermanagement options were removed from the vendor provided
driver as they did not build properly at the time.

TODO:
	- kernel coding style cleanups
	- forward port for latest network driver changes
	- kill useless typecasts (e.g. in et1310_phy.c)
	- alloc_etherdev is initializing memory with zero?!?
	- add_timer call in et131x_netdev.c is correct?
	- Add power saving functionality (suspend, sleep, resume)
	- Implement a few more kernel Parameter (set mac )
