This is another driver for the Atheros "otus" 802.11n USB devices.
This driver provides more features than the original,
but it needs a special firmware (carl9170-1.fw) to do that.
The firmware can be downloaded from our wiki here:
<http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/carl9170>
If you choose to build a module, it'll be called carl9170.

Provides a hardware random number generator to the kernel.
SECURITY WARNING: It's relatively easy to eavesdrop all
generated random numbers from the transport stream with
usbmon [software] or special usb sniffer hardware.
Say N, unless your setup[i.e.: embedded system] has no
other rng source and you can afford to take the risk.
