Are these devices really *so* different from what's gone before that
they deserve their own completely separate driver? Or should support for
the new hardware be merged into the existing ssb/b43 framework?

It wouldn't be the first time that a vendor has submitted a "new" driver
which really shouldn't have been reinventing the wheel.
