Kalle,

Please include this patch even though the rest of this set should be dropped. 
Once the wifi-BT communications problem is resolved, new versions of those will 
be presented.

I'm sorry that my commit message was not as informative as it could have been. I 
was presented with this material that I did not understand. One saving grace is 
that the RTL8812AE hardware is apparently rare - I certainly do not have any 
samples. I'm not sure of the value of a 1x1 implementation of 802.11ac, but that 
may be another example of my ignorance.

Thanks,

Larry
