   so, to make sure i'm understanding this (and i just glanced at felix's
patch for that driver), there is a working build of trunk openwrt for this
buffalo airstation whr-1166d router:

with working 2.4G and 5G, and that is flashable onto that router? i can see
that a whr-1166d image is part of the default build profile for mt7620, so
i just want to make sure what i build can be installed on an out-of-box
whr-1166d. do i have that about right? because that would be absolutely
delightful.
