Put both kernel and net folders in the package, and then run make defconfig tip:

WARNING: Makefile 'package/net/qts1kpcierpc/Makefile' has a dependency on 'qts1kpcie_status_plugin', which does not exist

How to successfully compile and use 5GHz, can you guide me?

R7500v1

I'm so sorry if I bother you.
I have a Netgear R7500v1. I had upgraded to LEDE fw, but 5ghz isn't supposed. So, I've come back stock fw. The problem is 5ghz (in stock fw) isn't working anymore. I tried solution in here http://my-router.blogspot.ie/2015/01/netgear-r7500-openwrt-revert-back-to.html?m=1 but it was not working.
Could you help me please? With a LEDE or OpenWrt fw support 5ghz band. Or method to make 5ghz work in stock fw.

Driver not compiling.

Hi...
Can't find some files :
asm-generic/pci-dma-compat.h

Integrating into OpenWRT: where is the source code?

I cloned the repo and took a look on how to integrate it into OpenWRT process.
Where is the actual driver source code? In kernel/quantenna_qts1kpcie/files, there's only a binary blob, topaz-linux.lzma.img. Is the actual source code from Netgear used unchanged? If no, what were the changes and where can I find the updated version?
Thanks.
