wiphy_register fail on A20 w/ 5.3.9-sunxi and 2001:331d

[platima]

Hi,

I added 2001:331d to usb_intf.h as per official driver http://files.dlink.com.au/products/DWA-171/REV_C/Drivers/DWA-171_Linux_driver_v5.8.1_Driver/, and it builds and installs fine, but always seems to crash or warn, with;

Note with this DWA-171 I have to do a usb_modeswitch -KW -v 0bda -p 1a2b first. lsusb does show the device there, but iwconfig shows no interfaces available.

I also got that official driver to compile, and have the exact same issue, so I am not 100% on the cause.

Note https://github.com/brektrou/rtl8821CU does not have this issue for some reason

I run into the same trouble with a driver for cudy wu700 (ac650).

This commit have solve it.

Probably only the changes on rtw_cfgvendor.c file is necessary for your issue.
