John, this is new feature, not a bug fix. However I still think it'd be
great to take this for 3.2. This is hopefully final b43 patch for 3.2
related to HT-PHY support. With this last one, basic support should be
100% implemented now.
This can be even more important, as there isn't any native Linux driver
(open or closed source) for HT-PHY (BCM4331) other than b43.
This has been succesfully tested by David, reported signal looked sane
for him. Unfortunately we still lack info about the noise, but having
signal gives users some basic overview on the available networks.
