I'm a little confused. The files deleted in 09505184ec3d are not used at all in
the new rtl8192e. The only way it makes sense is you did not have the new
version when the the error with r8192E_core.c occurred.

The error that was reported to me was
"drivers/staging/rtl8192e/rtl_core.c:2917:2: error: unknown field
'ndo_set_multicast_list' specified in initializer". The file rtl_core.c is
needed with the new version. Yes, the names are quite confusing, which is part
of the reason it took so long to delete the unused ones.

I have tested Stephan's patch and will send it to Greg with my SOB.

Larry
