FWIW I have pushed my git tree here:
https://github.com/linusw/linux-mt7630e

The driver codedrop from Mediatek turned out to be based on
kernel v3.10 so there the patches applied cleanly. I then rebased
that to v3.11 all the way up to v4.3.

Branches are named:
mt7630e-<kernelversion>

That branch does allow me to see access points so it's not
totally worthless, but it doesn't associate or connect so
there is logic missing, and that's where my knowledge of
wireless fell short. It wasn't about git rebasing and simple
C code anymore ... I actually had to know what I was
doing, haha :)

Since then I have not had time to go back and look at it
again.

Yours,
Linus Walleij
