Linus: is this possible for you to give b43 a chance? It has to be compiled with
B43_BCMA
B43_PHY_N
Unfortunately you have to install firmware manually to get b43 working
:( Howto is located at:
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/b43
("Install b43-fwcutter" and "If you are using the b43 driver from 3.2
kernel or newer:").

b43 doesn't re-init bus devices, so this test will check if bcma is OK or not.
That probably will require blacklisting brcmsmac for a moment to
prevent bcma auto-loading it. Testing from cold-boot is recommended.
