It's all in there now, but my RTL8191SEvB is still dead.  Squabbling
with it isn't going all that well either.

As soon as 38506ece rtlwifi: rtl_pci: Start modification for new drivers
is applied, explosions appear.  Subsequently applying...

08054200 rtlwifi: Add check for get_btc_status callback
c0386f15 rtlwifi: rtl8192ce: rtl8192de: rtl8192se: Fix handling for missing get_btc_status
50147969 rtlwifi: rtl8192se: Fix duplicate calls to ieee80211_register_hw()
30c5ccc6 rtlwifi: rtl8192se: Add missing section to read descriptor setting
75a916e1 rtlwifi: rtl8192se: Fix firmware loading

...fixes that mess up, but leaves the interface dead in the same manner
as if nothing has been reverted.  So it _seems_ the bustage lurks in
38506ece somewhere.  Too bad it's non-dinky, and written in wifi-ese :)
