AWUS036AC-linux

Provides support for Jetson Nano

AWUS036AC Ubuntu linux driver.

This driver comes from Alfa Network: AWUS036AC driver

Some fixes was needed to get driver working on Ubuntu:

• file_path is now an exported symbol, there will be an error for redefinition: redeclared as different kind of symbol.
• Avoid using strnicmp, since that's not in the c standard. Quick hack was to put a #define strnicmp strncasecmp in rtw_android.c file.
• Recent GCCs error if the build is non-reproducible because of using the date or time macros. In the driver directory, add the following to the Makefile: EXTRA_CFLAGS += -Wno-error=date-time
• On upgrading to Ubuntu 16.04, with its 4.4 kernel, there was an additional change. In the driver directory, in rtw_debug.h, there are a couple errors because seq_printf is void, not int. So, there are two places where you’ll need to get rid of the if surrounding use of _seqdump, which is on lines 232 and 242.

The driver should compile out-of-the-box on Ubuntu.
