1e9ee6f7b6 staging: r8712u: use is_zero_ether_addr() instead of memcmp()
Using is_zero_ether_addr() instead of directly use
memcmp(addr, "\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00", ETH_ALEN)
to determine if the ethernet address is all zeros.

spatch with a semantic match is used to found this problem.

2046782524 staging: wean rtl8712 off of its ancient duplicate of ip.h
This driver should not be carrying around ancient copies of
headers like <linux/ip.h> for its own use.  Mapping it onto
the mainline one uncovers no build issues.

86587b671b staging: r8712u: Simplify semaphores
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.

5d3da4a20a staging: r8712u: Tracking kmemleak false positives.
The frame buffers allocated in _r8712_init_recv_priv() are not tracked
by kmemleak, but they are freed when the driver is unloaded. To help
find any real leaks, these false positives are annotated for kmemleak.

2865d42c78 staging: r8712u: Add the new driver to the mainline kernel
This code is for a completely new version of the Realtek 8192 USB devices
such as the D-Link DWA-130. The Realtek code, which was originally for
Linux, Windows XP and Windows CE, has been stripped of all code not needed
for Linux. In addition, only one additional configuration variable, which
enables AP mode, remains.
