There is an important difference between the v3 and v4 specs in this
respect. Looking at http://bcm-v4.sipsolutions.net/802.11/PHY/Init/G I
see in §7a that we're only supposed to set PHY register 0x4cc if the A
PHY revision is 5. The v3 specs seem to suggest that we should do that
whenever the revision is below 6 and not equal to 3. 

The A PHY revision in my case is 2, and it's the access to PHY register
0x4CC which triggers the machine check.
