Response from upstream
The bcmwl driver is an out-of-tree driver with binary blob. So this is
not an upstream driver, which is what linux-wireless is about. Now the
error message seems clear to me and it means that in the new 3.17-rc2
kernel alloc_netdev interface changed. So you could try fixing that.
This is the commit changing the api:
commit c835a677331495cf137a7f8a023463afd9f032f8

net: set name_assign_type in alloc_netdev()
so its not a kernel bug but still a bug.
