Here's an updated version that should fix even more bugs:

I had to omit the last part (for tables.c) - it's unrelated, cosmetic
and doesn't apply to wireless-2.6/everything.
This patch (and its predecessor) seem to make transmission at the
OFDM rates a bit more reliable on
my BCM4311/2 card.
It's working fine on BCM4318 on PowerPC. I haven't done any specific
comparisons, but it used to disconnect a lot (at least one an hour)
with a small antenna, so I installed a bigger antenna, but then gave
up and switched to using another wireless device (rtl8185).
Right now, it's been working for over 2 hours with a small antenna
(although it's a different antenna borrowed from rtl8185) and no
disconnects. Scanning finds 5 APs, which is the most I have seen here.
