Re: rtl8821ae.

[Andrea Merello]

Sorry, my fault.. you had already reported me the iowrite16 vs
iowrite8 for anaparam3 issue, but I forgot to fix it :(

If you are reasonably sure that a 16bits-wide write is OK on the
rtl8187b hardware (In reference code I have here only 8bits are
written), then I agree applying your fix, and I will leave unchanged
my modifications.
Otherwise, if you are unsure, I will revert thing in the common
rtl818x struct (switching back to 8bit type) and I simply make a cast
on rtl8187se, or I will use an union if possible, so the rtl8187b
driver remains unchanged.

On the other hand, for the remaining issues with changed names for
bitfield (the XXXX_SHIFT), I wil vote to fix the rtl8187 driver:
That names IMHO are wrong (misleading) and while fixing them should
help avoid future confusion, the fix is trivial enough that I'm really
confident not to broke anything.

I had already sent a patch for it:

http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=139033180125824&w=2

Whit this mail I intend to try to push it once more.

If it could be applied I prefer by far, otherwise, if it is too hassle
to handle it for the trivial thing it actually does, then I will
change back in rtl8180 driver..

Thank you
Andrea
