Since 2.6.38 b43 has initial working support for the earlier N-PHYs (namely BCM4321 and BCM4322), I thought it would be nice to be able to use it in OpenWrt.
These patches add a new firmware version needed for BCM4322 ucode, add additional options to kmod-b43 (PIO and debug), and finally make N-PHY support available (all three default to n). The support is still quite limited, neither WEP nor no encryption seems to work (at least for me), and I had to use PIO mode to get my BCM4321 to actually work (with PIO mode it seems to work fine, though). BCM4322 support is untested. Also there is no support for actual 11n, and on the TX side it is afaik limited to 11M. RX should work with up to 54M.
