Subject: staging:rtl8192u: [0/10] Coding style changes.

All coding style changes, but the second [2/10] is a bit more hairy then
most. The original code combined two typedef declarations into one with both
the structure and a pointer to the structure defined. I've totally removed the
pointer to the structure type since it uses Hungarian notation, which the
coding standard isn't keen on.

As a result of this there are changes in code from the type:
PStructType  *ppname;
to:
struct StructType **ppname;

To keep the diff simple I've kept the current nameing of "ppname", which again
is Hungarian notation. I'll leave that for a future patch.
