Is this supposed to work on its own bringing support for Ralink 2860 to 
FreeBSD? (The one in the Asus EeePC 901/1000H according to 
http://wiki.freebsd.org/AsusEee .)

Does this mean WPA should work for RT2860? (Just not for the chips you 
added support for?)

If this is supposed to bring RT2860 support to FreeBSD in general:

- Should it work on amd64 and i386?
- Should it work on 8.2-RELEASE?
- Should it work as a module?

In case this is all supposed to work: I tried to create a module on 
8.2-RELEASE/amd64 by adding a simple sys/modules/rt2860/Makefile (as I 
did not want to modify my stock 8.2-RELEASE kernel). I only got to:

In file included from 
/usr/src/sys/modules/rt2860/../../dev/rt2860/rt2860.c:19:
@/dev/rt2860/rt2860_softc.h:52:24: error: opt_rt2860.h: No such file or 
directory

I do not find opt_rt2860.h anywhere in your patches. Assuming it was 
optional, I have commented it out only to get to:

cc1: warnings being treated as errors
/usr/src/sys/modules/rt2860/../../dev/rt2860/rt2860_pci.c:63: warning: 
'rt2860_pci_detach' declared 'static' but never defined

Probably, I am doing something unsupported here (especially as there is 
no if_rt2860_pci.c, which I would expect).

Cheers,
Jan Henrik
