The new mmiotrace is scheduled for Linux 2.6.27.  It's already present
in several kernel trees, including linux-next.  It will use debugfs.  I
suggest that you look at the new mmiotrace code.  It will allow
debugging madwifi or any driver without changes, this making a separate
madwifi-trace branch unnecessary.  I suggest that you look at it.

I'm afraid extracting the new mmiotrace from linux-next would be too
much work, but it shouldn't take long before mmiotrace comes to the
wireless-testing branch.  I think we are 1 week from 2.6.26, 3 weeks
from 2.6.27-rc1 and 4 weeks from wireless-testing based on 2.6.27-rc1.
