I'm sorry, but I will have again to veto part of your patch.
You are removing IDs from the Orinoco driver. Please don't do
that, those card work perfectly with the orinoco driver, and some of
us run them with the orinoco driver (orinoco is one third the
footprint of hostap).

The overall architecture of hotplug/udev module loading is
broken as it does not allow user override. I have explained in details
the problem to the concerned people, but it seems that they don't
really care. The standard answer is "blacklist the orinoco
module". Let's not even mention libusual.

Please do *NOT* remove those IDs from the Orinoco driver. The
Orinoco driver do support those devices properly.
