Rtl8187se support has been added to the rtl818x_pci driver by extracting a lot of information from a rtl8187se Linux staging driver included in the kernel at the time rtl8187se support was added. The rtl818x_pci main file has a comment that advertises this. Recently this staging driver has been removed from the kernel, but I still feel it can be useful as "reference" code (in case of bugs, or to implement improvements in rtl818x_pci driver). This one-line patch adds a comment in rtl818x_pci driver to point people searching for that "reference code" to the last kernel version still containing it (3.14).
