Larry Finger 650b3b293b bcm43xx: fix regressions in 2.6.18
The bcm43xx code in 2.6.18 has a serious problems not found in 2.6.17, due to
a change in the locking mechanism introduced to reduce latency. The following patch
fixes the problems in locking, reduces the latency associated with the periodic
work tasklet, and contains code needed for those cards that use 64-bit DMA.

	README
	------

	This directory is mostly for Wireless LAN drivers, in their
various incarnations (ISA, PCI, Pcmcia...).
	This separate directory is needed because a lot of driver work
on different bus (typically PCI + Pcmcia) and share 95% of the
code. This allow the code and the config options to be in one single
place instead of scattered all over the driver tree, which is never
100% satisfactory.

	Note : if you want more info on the topic of Wireless LANs,
you are kindly invited to have a look at the Wireless Howto :
		http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/
	Some Wireless LAN drivers, like orinoco_cs, require the use of
Wireless Tools to be configured :

	Special notes for distribution maintainers :
	1) wvlan_cs will be discontinued soon in favor of orinoco_cs
	2) Please add Wireless Tools support in your scripts

	Have fun...
