Bug Description
Hi,
I am trying to make it work this device with the driver brcmsmac, since seems is the only one that supports AP mode (and this is mandatory in our case; all other drivers for this devices, including proprietary one, does not support this mode).
When I issue sudo modprobe brcmsmac, this is what I get in logs:
