Bug Description
Fritz WLAN USB driver doesn't play nicely with HAL and thus
NetworkManager doesn't recognize the wlan device created.
Reason is that the driver doesn't create a link from the sysfs
class/net hierarchy to the devices hierachy - needed by hal.
The following patch corrects that behavior. Its just one line and I
could test that with this patch you can actually connect through
network-manager using a fritz wlan usb stick.
