Bye, Roland.

OK, this compiles fine on x86-64/SMP. It's probably not interesting
but there are just a few warnings:

Yeah.  The driver only works under 32 bit.  This is listed in the
TODO file as something to fix before it leaves staging.

At the moment, we haven't really seen any interest in 64-bit support with sdio
(almost all actual usage is 32-bit ARM as far as I can tell), but it will
definitely get more relevant when we add USB support to brcmfmac.  We'll work
on getting it up and running, but any help would be appreciated.

Is it safe to assume the related modules (mmc.ko, etc) work on 64-bit?

I've verified that the brcmfmac driver works on 64-bit x86 kernels.
There are a few compiler warnings that we'll clean up.
