Like the version in drivers/net/wireless, this driver requires the
MAC80211 framework, otherwise we run into a link error:
ERROR: "ieee80211_rx_irqsafe" [drivers/staging/rtlwifi/r8822be.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "cfg80211_unlink_bss" [drivers/staging/rtlwifi/r8822be.ko] undefined!

ERROR: "ieee80211_resume_disconnect" [drivers/staging/rtlwifi/r8822be.ko] undefined!
This adds the Kconfig dependency for it.

Greg,
Please take this patch instead of my patch from yesterday.
Thanks.

Fixed it up by hand now, all should be good.

Greg,
I lost track of which version of this patch you are taking. The one that Randy
Dunlap sent that added NETDEVICES was better than the initial version, but this
one with MAC80211 is the correct one. Randy's patch is in the latest pull I did
on staging.
Do you want an updated patch?

Nope, all should be good now, I've fixed it by hand. Look in my tree
and if it's still wrong there, please send me a fixup.
