Hi,
Well, that's a bit of a problem. The original source code's license is
incompatible with the GPL, so you can't take it (or parts of it) and
put it under the GPL, or merge it into GPL'd code. This is a license
violation and also a copyright violation, and makes anyone
(re-)distributing it vulnerable to legal action from Broadcom. That
unfortunately makes it impossible to include in OpenWrt or Linux
itself.
You could try to contact Broadcom and get them to release the code
with a GPL compatible license. That would be the only clean legal way
to add a driver written by you.
Tried contact them already. Wrote several times but its like bashing the wall.
Have nice day,
George
