The problem is due to rtl8192ce and rtl8192cu sharing routines, and having
different layouts of struct rtl_pci_priv, which is used by rtl8192ce, and
struct rtl_usb_priv, which is used by rtl8192cu. The problem was resolved
by placing the struct bt_coexist_info at the head of each of those private
areas.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
