Subject: [PATCH 0/2] *** r8723au: Replace semaphore lock with mutex ***

Hi,

These are a set of patches which removes semaphores from:

drivers/staging/rtl8723au

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:

R8723AU
"Realtek RTL8723AU Wireless LAN NIC driver"

Thanks,
Binoy
