Subject: [PATCH 0/3] staging: r8188eu: Remove 5GHz band related code

This series removes code only needed for 5 GHz because the r8188eu
driver is meant to work with chips that are only capable to operate on
2.4 GHz band with 14 channels.

This driver has been (quickly) tested with an ASUS USB N10 Nano, however
I think it needs some more testing by more experienced users and
programmers.

Thanks to Fabio Aiuto <fabioaiuto83@...il.com> who gave me the
inspiration to address this work, since he made a (more extended) 
removal of 5 GHz code from rtl8723bs:
