No, that's fine — it's quite normal. The generic hardware support, like BCM4331 and new PHY support, is much better off that way. Where we are making intrusive changes to mac80211 that require changes to all drivers simultaneously, we can still do those in wireless-testing on top of the changes from the b43 tree. (Or if there was a proper git tree with the core mac80211 changes, a b43 tree could also just pull from that tree. But that probably isn't necessary.) -- dwmw2
