I noticed by random that rtl8xxxu includes linux/wireless.h even though it
doesn't need it. While investigating a bit more I found even more unused
include files:
#include <linux/init.h>
#include <linux/sched.h>
#include <linux/ethtool.h>
It looks like that the includes are just copied to every file without checking
if the file really needs the include. So more includes could be removed but
that would need more careful analysis per each file.
No functional changes, compile tested only.

I can do that. My ways will be to create an empty (new) C file to examine
every driver's header file can be included individually, and then try-and-error
to remove includes from existing C files.
However, this driver uses #ifdef. I will check if autoconf.h is included.

I made a patch [1] followed above ways based on these two patches.

Make script of kernel will automatically include include/linux/kconfig.h, so
I didn't need extra works for #ifdef.
