Hi Saurav,

> I am trying to implement rfkill support for realtek driver for rtl8192e.
> The realtek driver we are using is very much similar to the one in
> kernel 2.6.31.5(linux-2.6.31.5/drivers/staging/rtl8192su).
> In order to use "wiphy_rfkill_set_hw_state", I need "struct wiphy"
> which in turn is a part of "ieee80211_hw" structure.
> However ieee80211_hw is not used in our driver.
> Is the usage of 80211_hw is obsolete?
> Without having the above structure how can I use the rfkill interface?
> 
> Anybody aware of this, please share some pointers.
