Pin the package to the current code commit, ship both maintained modules and all firmware variants, remove obsolete Bluetooth configuration, and document kernel-specific rebuilds.
Sanitize obsolete modprobe and udev rules during upgrades, unload the removed module when possible, and expand Bluetooth diagnostics for stale configuration. Continues the cleanup for #44 and #53.
Install mode-switch dependencies, support a69c:572f, avoid redundant generic headers when a usable kernel build tree exists, and discover DKMS logs dynamically. Addresses installer portions of #28, #55, #65, #66, and #68.
This branch already switched to standard btusb (commit 86aa95f), but
several pieces still pointed back at the removed aic_btusb module:
- drivers/aic8800/aic_btusb/ source tree (no longer in build)
- modprobe/aic8800-bt.conf installed to /etc/modprobe.d/, which
softdep'd btusb to a nonexistent aic_btusb and aliased AIC BT
interfaces to it. This caused btusb to load without firmware
having been uploaded, producing HCI_Reset timeout -110 on hci0.
- install.sh still copied that conf into /etc/modprobe.d/
- diagnose_bt.sh still told users to modprobe aic_btusb
diagnose_bt.sh rewritten to flag the residual /etc/modprobe.d/aic8800-bt.conf
on already-installed systems and to advise the correct flow
(aic_load_fw uploads BT firmware, btusb takes over).

Added USB VID/PID for TP-Link vendor (0x2357) and Mercury product (0x014b)
to support WiFi adapters that re-enumerate with these IDs after firmware
loading. The device is recognized as AIC8800D81 chip with RX aggregation.

Device 368b:8d84 is an AIC 8800D80 variant not included in the USB
device table. Add it as AIC8800M80_CUS0 alongside the other M80 CUS
variants; it maps to PRODUCT_ID_AIC8800D81 like its siblings.
Tested on kernel 6.19.8-arch1 with a physical dongle (Bus 001 Device
005: ID 368b:8d84 AICSemi AIC 8800D80).
Add automatic loading of btusb (standard Linux Bluetooth driver) after
WiFi module installation. This enables Bluetooth functionality without
requiring manual intervention.
The aic_load_fw module uploads Bluetooth firmware including ext0 patches,
then btusb driver handles the actual Bluetooth interface.

Add radio_idx and changed parameters to rwnx_cfg80211_get_tx_power function
to match the updated cfg80211 API signature introduced in Linux 6.17+. This
fixes compilation errors on kernel 6.19 and later versions.
