This patch fixes the following checkpatch.pl warning:
Prefer ether_addr_copy() over memcpy()
if the Ethernet addresses are __aligned(2)
pahole showed that the struct used pnetdev->dev_addr
is aligned to u16.
Moreover mac is a simple array, pdata is a pointer that
starts from an even offset.

unused variables are removed. These variables were only assigned some
values and after that they were never being used. So they are safe to
be removed , and it has been build tested.
I left a call to r8712_read32(padapter, TCR) and
r8712_read8(padapter, SDIO_HCPWM) .
r8712_read32() and r8712_read8() is ultimately calling usb_read32()
and usb_read8() respectively. and they are again calling
r8712_usbctrl_vendorreq().
this r8712_usbctrl_vendorreq() is communicating through the usb bus
and is sending and receiving the control msg.

In commit ee6aeff, a swatch warning was fixed by moving some code inside
an if block that is executed only when the pointer padapter is not NULL.
In fact, padapter can never be NULL and the corect fix should have been

It seems the USB device ID 0bda:8192 is wrongly assigned to the
RTL8192SU chip and not to the RTL8191SU chip in the USB database.
So this patch moves this device ID from the rtl8192u staging
driver to the rtl8712 staging driver.
This patch was tested with a Radicom WIFIHU embedded wireless
module with a RTL8191SU chip and the USB device ID 0bda:8192.
Without the patch the rtl8192u driver claims this device, but
it does not work. With the patch the rtl8712 driver services
this device and it works.

In commit 8c213fa "staging: r8712u: Use asynchronous firmware loading",
the command to release the firmware was placed in the wrong routine.
In combination with the bug introduced in commit a5ee652 "staging: r8712u:
Interface-state not fully tracked", the driver attempts to upload firmware
that had already been released. This bug is the source of one of the
problems in https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/27996#comment89833.

I am preparing to convert this driver from semaphore to mutex locking,
The first step has been to eliminate a number of semaphores that were
initialized but never used, and one whose only use was a single "up"
after initialization. A total of 9 semaphores were removed in this process.
One other change was to remove some inline semaphore routines that were
unused.
In addition, several cases had the following structure:
down()
if () {
...
}
up()
The locking overhead was reduced by moving the up/down inside the if
block.
