* Looking for dual core (IEEE 802.11) device supported by b43

I was wondering if we need support for core switching in b43. Is there
any device supported by b43 that has two IEEE 802.11 ssb cores?

I was searching for examples of such devices and they always are ssb
chipsets 0x4306 with two IEEE 802.11 cores rev 0x04. As you know, revs
0x02 and 0x04 are supported by b43legacy.

Maybe some uncommon PCMCIA/SDIO devices? Anyone recalling them?

There never was a supported device that required coreswitching.
So it's completely untested.
As of my knowledge only a few of the very early A-PHY devices
required this.
Feel free to remove it from b43.
