pc could be null if hosttype != BCMA_HOSTTYPE_PCI.
If we are on a device without a pci core this function is called with
pc = null by b43 and brcmsmac. If the host type is PCI we have a pci
core as well and pc can not be null.

Could you change the if statement as well:
  - if (core->bus->hosttype != BCMA_HOSTTYPE_PCI) {
  + if (!pc || core->bus->hosttype != BCMA_HOSTTYPE_PCI)
Yes that's good I will change that, just to be save.

Is removing the braces correct here? There is just one line of code so
it will compile and the braces are not necessary, but I think it would
looks somehow strange because there is a 3 line comment in addition to
the one line of code in that if block.

@Joe Perches what do you think about this?
