How about this:

The brcmsmac driver is now using the bcma SPROM logic, which does not
recognize all chipsets that were functional prior to the switch. In
particular, the current code bails out on odd CRC errors in recent
Macbooks. This patch ignores those errors, with the argument that an
unrecognized SPROM should be treated similarly to a non-existing one.

By all means, thanks.
