I don't think the PHY transmission error is caused by the rfkill switch, but I have no idea where it
arises. It has been present since I enabled the device with 64-bit DMA.
I have not determined how to get rfkill to react to the LED switch, but now that the BCM4311 rev 02
card is working, I should have some time to look at it.
