I am sending a raw diff that will for sure not compile. I am asking for guidance and help in going on. I think better way to add support for MT7630 chip to mailine kernel would be via new Felix's mt76 driver, because there are less diffrence between MT7630 and MT76x2 than between MT7630 and the old Ralink chips.
