Why would I want to do this? If the community agrees on anything, it is that 
the signal is given in 
dBm (i.e. a negative number) and that the rssi is a positive number. The 
firmware in the bcm43xx 
chips return a quantity that looks like an rssi with a received packet, and 
bcm43xx_rssi_postprocess 
turns that into a quantity that looks like dBm. Your patch reverses those 
designations and mixes up 
the two quantities. Again I ask "Why"?
