The name is given by the firmware, so we assume it is predictable.

How about the scenario where one would have multiple broadcom wifi
devices in the system. Both driver instances would alloc_netdev with
predictable but also the same ifname. Wondering whether we should ignore
the firmware ifname altogether.

Hm, that would just fail irrespective of this patch, right? Sounds
like ignoring the firmware names is the right thing to do.

Cheers,
