If the day ever came where the FCC inquired about a theoretical spurious radio emissions issue in such a chipset, and asked Broadcom for a list of all affected hardware releases, would the FCC also be told “who knows”?
I guess the difference is that the FCC has the statutory authority to yank Broadcom’s certifications to sell their product, whereas Hector is merely improving your driver support for no monetary compensation from you.
Maybe the Broadcom drivers should be yanked from Linux if this is what passes for Broadcom release engineering.
