In the time between Linux 4.15-rc8 and -rc9, my wireless driver, b43, would
no longer load automatically. When I modprobe the b43 (and ssb) modules,
the device still didn't appear in NetworkManager. Comparing the kernel logs
between working (4.14.16-lts) and nonworking (4.15) kernels reveals that
there is zero output from the ssb module, and no devices recognized by the
b43 driver:

Thanks for your bug report.
A fix for this exists already:
