John,
Please queue the following patch for wireless-2.6. It removes some code that was made obsolete by
the wireless statistics changes of several weeks ago, but was not noticed them.
Thanks,
Larry
=================
This patch removes code that was make obsolete when the wireless statistics in bcm43xx-softmac were
changed, but was overlooked at that time. The value of bcm->stats.link_quality computed here is
never used.

So you can also remove the actual variable, no?
