Update:
Since manually doing suspend/resume it a bit tedious i started to do
some load/unload of wl.ko. after ~200 load/unload cycles the wifi
works without problem.
I have not been able to get a failure with the below for about 15
suspend/resume's, and it would be good if more people than me could
test it as a workaround.
A possible workaround, until the real issue has been resolved could be
to create "/etc/pm/sleep.d/09_brcm_wl" with the following content
BYMMW:
#!/bin/sh
case $1 in
resume|thaw)
date >>/var/log/brcm_wl.log
echo "Loading wl module" >>/var/log/brcm_wl.log
/sbin/modprobe wl
;;
suspend|hibernate)
date >>/var/log/brcm_wl.log
echo "Removing wl module" >>/var/log/brcm_wl.log
/sbin/rmmod wl
sleep 5 # to allow for network-manager and other things to
finish before system is suspended. Got a few hiccups without it.
exit 0
