It does not. That is why I was asking b43 developers for feedback in this RFC. By moving to another structure there is more work involved that needs good b43 knowledge (which I am lacking). What I can do is provide a function that maps bcma_sprom structure members to ssb_sprom structure members to make the transition easier. Gr. AvS
