Bug#435020: ITP: p54 -- Driver for Prism54 "softmac" 802.11

Maybe it's more worth to help upstream to get the driver integrated
into Linus's kernel. To put it bluntly:

	If the driver isn't high quality enough to be accepted in Linus's
	kernel, is it high quality enough to be maintained in Debian?

Maintaining external kernel module packages in debian is hard
work as the linux-2.6 package gets updated often.

"rm -rf" only sounds scary if you don't have backups
