Arend is right I was asking if you would like:
drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/Kconfig
drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/Makefile
drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/b43
drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/b43legacy
drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211

or this:
drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/

or this:
drivers/net/wireless/

for the copy-list file.

This is not just about the Broadcom driver I would do it in the same way
for all wifi driver.

Do both of you replace the copy-list file in your internal versions?
