[PATCH] staging: r8188eu: add extra TODO entries

[Phillip Potter]

Add entry for CFG80211 to reflect that it is currently being worked on
and is a desirable feature to have for this driver. Leave entries for
LIB80211 and MAC80211 in case anyone else wishes to work on them - they
can always be removed later, but MAC80211 in particular would certainly
be good to aim for. Also, include an entry for improving error handling,
as this is another goal of the cleanup effort.

Cool, I like it. There is one more extra task, but I will take care of 
it. I hope. We need to delete dead proc code and move to sysfs. I have a 
plan to finish this part until next weekends, but maybe it worth adding 
to TODO.

Thank you
