So what I suggest you is to re-do all tests with a *proper*
(un)installing drivers and/or blacklisting them.

There is no point in tracking b43 regression as there can't be one.
There weren't any bcma/b43 changes between 3.17 and 3.17.1.

I suggest you to check if Broadcom's wl can work with your BCM43228
and 3.17.1. Make sure (I mean *sure*) you use *only* wl.ko. Then try
to connect. This will let us know if there is anything wrong about
cfg80211.
