Dave,

RNDIS is a de facto standard from Microsoft for USB networking devices.
We already have support for ethernet devices, but wireless devices exist
as well.  This series applies some fixes to the current ethernet RNDIS
stuff to co-exist with wireless and adds a wireless RNDIS driver.  I
would like to see it in 2.6.25.

Thanks!

John
