That's it.

On your question "what do you mean by different errors", I mean the
reported errors are different. Without that patch the reported error
is:

b43-phy0 debug: TX-status contains invalid cookie: 0x0DCE
b43-phy0 debug: Out of order TX status report on DMA ring 1. Expected 74, but got 76
b43-phy0 debug: Out of order TX status report on DMA ring 1. Expected 74, but got 78
... and so on.
