Here are some changes done while working to get the R8000 working.
Some are straight forward while some require review.
I'm not sure if I've done the sprom rev 11 change the way it should
be done so that needs fairly close review.
I thought about making a seperate driver for the the PEX8603 in th
Looks like the BCM53012 has a similar problem to the BCM53011.

After a vendor firmware install the values seen in nvram for et0macaddr
and et1macaddr are that of nvram macaddr and nvram macaddr+1.

The Netgear R8000 has a PEX8603 connected to the BCM53012 and if
it isn't configured during the bus scan the PCI layer goes crazy
trying to configure phantom devices.

Change looks OK, however I'd prefer you to simply modify existing
patch 170-pcie2-bcma-add-new-PCIe2-driver-for-bcma.patch
It still wasn't included/accepted mainline, so it's safe to update
