I didn't have access to the hardware until now. It seems to be working
now! I don't get invalid SPROM with rev 0 anymore.

The only message log that bothers me is:
[    0.716000] bcma: bus1: invalid sprom read from the PCIe card, try
to use fallback sprom
[    0.812000] can not parse nvram name pci/1/1/mcsbw402gpo(null) with
value 0x0x88800000 got -22
I didn't have time to track it yet.
