Actually you are about month early to the party ;-). We are trying to
clean up winbond usb wireless driver, so that it can think about
inclusion in kernel.
http://code.google.com/p/winbondport/
Unfortunately, original driver carries its own 802.11 stack with it;
that needs to be stripped down. (And then code needs to be rewritten
due to horrible coding style).
