ndiswrapper 1.58 - temporary fix for kernel 3.10

As many of you might know, ndiswrapper got removed from the official repos as it's broken by procfs API changes in kernel 3.10.
I couldn't find any patches and upstream seems to be dead, so I migrated it myself.

This is only intended to be a temporary solution! I would welcome it if the old maintainer or someone else took over maintainership again as my time is limited these days.

Upstream source: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ndiswrapper/
Patch: kernel-3.10.patch
AUR: ndiswrapper-1.58-16

Tested and working with linux-3.10.2 and 3.10.3 and a Realtek 8187Se.

Happy NDIS wrapping!

Maybe you might want to send an email to [arch-general] (or even [aur-general] since it was in [community] before).
