Thank you for the update. It's essential to address the issue with
bcmwl-kernel-source and the upcoming 3.8 kernels. Your proposed SRU
request seems thorough, with clear impact, test cases, and a low
regression potential. It's important to ensure this fix is implemented
to maintain compatibility https://courtsdimensions.com/pickleball-court-

Bug description:
  Upcoming 3.8 kernels have broken this DKMS package.

  SRU request:

  [Impact]

   * As a result of this bug, bcmwl-kernel-source will fail to build the
  module against linux-generic-lts-raring in Ubuntu 12.04.

  [Test Case]

   * Enable the precise-proposed repository and install bcmwl-kernel-
  source (6.20.155.1+bdcom-0ubuntu0.0.2).

   * Install linux-generic-lts-raring

   * If the package installs without errors from DKMS with both the
  linux-generic and lts-raring kernels, then the patches work correctly.

  [Regression Potential]

   * The patches that I backported from 13.10 will preserve the current
  driver behaviour on linux-generic (3.2) and linux-generic-lts-quantal
  (3.5), thanks to the use of specific macros in the code which check
  the kernel version. As a result, no regressions of any kind can be
  expected on these kernels.
