Subject: [PATCH 00/10] staging:rtl8192u: Refactor enums r8192U_dm.h -Style

What was intended as a clean up of the file
drivers/staging/rtl8192u/r8192U_dm.h turned into refactoring of most of
the enumerated types defined in the file. Most of the enumerated types
were simply used to define a collection of constants, rather then
actually using the types as enumerated types.

So the variables which used the enums were all defined as being of
type u8. This removes the ability of the compiler to do type checking
of the types used. To correct this all u8 types have been changed to
enums where appropriate.

Whilst I've called these patches refactoring they are all essentially
coding style changes.
