Alan Stern 5d7cf67f72 Fix nomenclature for USB and PCI wireless devices 
A mouse that uses a USB connection is called a "USB mouse" device (or
"USB mouse" for short), not a "mouse USB" device.  By analogy, a WiFi
adapter that connects to the host computer via USB is a "USB wireless"
device, not a "wireless USB" device.  (The latter term more properly
refers to a defunct Wireless USB specification, which described a
technology for sending USB protocol messages over an ultra wideband
radio link.)

Similarly for a WiFi adapter card that plugs into a PCIe slot: It is a
"PCIe wireless" device, not a "wireless PCIe" device.

Rephrase the text in the kernel source where the word ordering is
wrong.

config PLFXLC tristate "pureLiFi X, XL, XC device support" depends on CFG80211 && MAC80211 && USB help This option adds support for pureLiFi LiFi USB wireless adapters. The pureLiFi X, XL, XC USB devices are based on 802.11 OFDM PHY but uses light as the transmission medium. The driver supports common 802.11 encryption/authentication methods including Open, WPA, WPA2-Personal and WPA2-Enterprise (802.1X).

   To compile this driver as a module, choose m here. The module will
   be called plfxlc.
