What other drivers are going to use this, I thought the current broadcom
drivers in drivers/net/wireless were not going to need this.
Last time you asked me whether it was necessary to have this in staging.
For this module I (think I) followed the kernel coding style and tried to
cover most of the SubmitChecklist (if applicable). If I should reconsider
that is fine by me.
The request for supporting amba axi scanning was raised by Jonas Gorski on
Mon 17 Jan 2011 "Merging SSB and HND/AI support" on linux-wireless list.
He was looking for this in the context of SoC router chips offering core
discovery by so-called DMP plugin which ARM provides for SoC's using the
AMBA AXI interconnect.
