The above commit causes a regression for me.
Booting with initcall_debug shows that bcma_modinit never returns:
calling bcma_modinit+0x0/0x33 [bcma] @ 210
bcma-pci-bridge 0000:02:00.0: enabling device (0000 -> 0002)
bcma: bus0: Found chip with id 0xA8D8, rev 0x01 and package 0x08
Which means that (obviously) my wireless nic doesnot work (doe not
show up in "ip addr"). Moreover, the kernel hangs during reboot and
I'm forced to do a hard-reboot.
Reverting the offending commit on top of 3.12-rc1 fixes the problem.
Cheers,
Tom

Hi,
There is already a patch in wireless-testing on its way into linux tree:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-testing.git/commit/?id=167fef2a4dce0fa9b9b847bac91cd06c191396d2

Thanks for the reference, hadn't seen that. FWIW, it works for me.
Cheers,
