The driver should show up in 4.4, however that version will not have
8192eu support.

I have a couple of 8192eu devices, but I haven't gotten to them yet. I
am currently working on 8723bu support and hopefully it should be fairly
easy to add 8192eu support from there. The 8192eu is a generation
somewhere between the 8723au/8192cu and the 8723bu architecture.

cheers,
Jes
