The rtlwifi family of drivers use similar routines to extract hardware information from EFUSE. This set of patches create a common routine to extract this data, and converts most of the drivers to use this routine.
In addition, a complicated set of if ... else if ... else statements are present in rtl8723ae. These are converted into switch statements that are much easier to read. The changes in the hwinfo routines was suggested by Arnd Bergmann. All of this material is intended for kernel 4.8. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger <larry.fin...@lwfinger.net> --- V2 - Applied changes suggested by Joe Perches Fixed a bug found after V1 was submitted These patches require ("rtlwifi: Add missing newlines to RT_TRACE calls") submitted by Joe Perches. v3 - Adding missing break statements.
