Subject: [PATCH v2 0/4] *** rtl8188eu: Replace semaphores with mutexes or completions ***

Hi,

These are a set of patches [v2] which removes semaphores from:

drivers/staging/rtl8188eu

These are part of a bigger effort to eliminate all semaphores 
from the linux kernel.

They build correctly (individually and as a whole).
NB: I have not tested this as I do not have the following hardware:

"Realtek RTL8188EU Wireless LAN NIC driver"

Incorporated changes w.r.t. review comments:
 - Changed changelog in patch 3/4

Thanks,
Binoy
