Subject: [PATCH] bcm43xx: fix for 4309
Date: Sat, 17 Feb 2007 18:24:44 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070217182444.5a7e3641@localhost> (raw)
BCM4309 devices aren't working properly as A PHYs aren't supported yet, but
we probe 802.11a cores anyway. This fixes it, while still allowing for A PHY code
to be developed in the future.
Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <stefano.brivio@polimi.it>

John,
This is actually a bugfix so I think it should make into 2.6.21. This makes
BCM4309 cards working.

Ciao
