Latest kernel is in testing,
please signoff for both arches.

I already have
.35 prepared, a fast signoff would be great.

This completely broke wireless for me on my laptop. b43 driver, i686
architecture. The wlan0 device would show up, but then you couldn't do
much of anything with it.

03:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev 01)
        Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device 365e

Interesting, because the driver hasn't changed at all since the base
2.6.34 was released:

dmcgee@galway ~/projects/linux-2.6 (master)
$ (find -name b43*) | xargs git diff v2.6.34..v2.6.34.2 | cat
<no output here>

The diff on drivers/net/wireless didn't look odd either; specific
(other) drivers changed but nothing that sticks out as affecting b43.

note to mention that with 2.6.35 kernel broadcom is working. i guess they did a partial merge from 2.6.35 to 2.6.34
