e9d57f2fd1 Turns out that my BCM4318 has a PCI ID of 0x4319, which lead me to
believe it was a BCM4319.  However, it is the a/b/g variation of the
BCM4318.  The chip itself is labelled BCM4318EKFBG, and the board is
BCM94318MKABG.

Paradox's patch includes the type of 802.11 wireless for each card,
but changes all the names (I don't think the latter is quite right).
Import that part of the patch, but keep the current set of BCM names
(with a minor tweak for the 4306 ones). I'll need to verify them via
some other means.

16dcc9ce77 Cleanup module declarations:
Use "bwi" consistently
	No need to have separate cardbus attachment
	No need to declare a module version

12e36acb09 Bring in Andrew Thompson's port of Sepherosa Ziehau's bwi driver for
Broadcom BCM43xx chipsets.  This driver uses the v3 firmware that
needs to be fetched separately.  A port will be committed to create
the bwi firmware module.

The driver matches the following chips: Broadcom BCM4301, BCM4307,
BCM4306, BCM4309, BCM4311, BCM4312, BCM4318, BCM4319

The driver works for 802.11b and 802.11g.

Limitations:
	This doesn't support the 802.11a or 802.11n portion of radios.
	Some BCM4306 and BCM4309 cards don't work with Channel 1, 2 or 3.
	Documenation for this firmware is reverse engineered from
		 http://bcm.sipsolutions.net/
	V4 of the firmware is needed for 11a or 11n support
		 http://bcm-v4.sipsolutions.net/
	Firmware needs to be fetched from a third party, port to be committed

# I've tested this with a BCM4319 mini-pci and a BCM4318 CardBus card, and
# not connected it to the build until the firmware port is committed.
