It seems all reads are 1 (0xffffffff). Can this be some bug in driver?
Can this be because I use adapter mini PCIe to PCIe x1? I remember
such a situation when I connected adapter to PCIe x16 and used N-PHY
card SSB based.

A read of all 1's is a symptom of reading a non-existent register. I would certainly suspect the adapter.

I have a PCI Express extender for my HP laptop. Although it avoids the problem of the white-listed WLAN modules in the BIOS, not all cards work with it. Perhaps there is a critical timing issue.

I just tested again. My BCM4322 (14e4:432b) works with both b43 and wl in the extender. For the record, the upload speeds are 8 Mbps with b43 and 15 Mbps with wl in the 2.4 GHz band (router max 54 Mbps). In the 5 GHz band, the router is set for 270 Mbps max and wl gets 80 Mbps. Of course, the 5 GHz band in b43 is inactive.
