Bug Description

During boot, the screen goes black and this line appears at the top, in white for several seconds:

[ 23.685148] INFO @wl_cfg80211_attach : Registered CFG80211 phy

Timestamp may vary of course. This is between the blank purple screen post-grub and the ubuntu splash. On this setup, this is now the *only* remaining primitivism in an otherwise seamless boot sequence. Nearly there!

NB: The wifi itself is working just fine, once the system's booted. Hence this seems like a plymouth/boot-experience kind of bug than a bug with wifi. Nothing's going wrong, I'm just being unnecessarily informed about it.

Hardware: This is a mac mini mid-2011, dual-booting with the help of rEFIt; therefore an intel Sandy Bridge, core i5, Intel HD3000 GPU. Running latest Saucy though I think this affected Raring too, from which I upgraded on this machine. That is to say, this is not new; I've just run out of higher-priority issues. My other machines have nvidia graphics, on which I don't think we're expecting seamless boots yet.

Can supply whatever other info you need, but I don't know what you need. :-)
