This fixes PHY transmission errors reported on some LP-PHY and HT-PHY
cards. For LP-PHY they were quite rare and not really noticable. On
HT-PHY they were critical, OFDM rates were not available at all.

The driver can spam the logs with "RX: Packet dropped" messages. These drops
originate from 1. a correpted PLCP, 2. decryption errors, and 3. packet
size underruns. Condition #3 logs a separate message, thus no dropped message
is needed.

When 64-bit DMA was first used, there were problems with the
BCM4311 (14e4:4311). The problem was "fixed" by using the GFP_DMA
flag in the allocation of coherent ring descriptor memory.
The original problem is now believed to have been due to bugs in
the 64-bit DMA implementation in the rest of the kernel, and that
those bugs have been fixed. Accordingly, the requirement for the
descriptors to be in the DMA zone is relaxed.
Bounce buffers are left in the DMA zone.

This removes the "FWxx" ID strings from the b43 and b43legacy
drivers. They were once used to match a specific driver revision
to a set of firmware files. However, this is hardly useful today.
Additionally, the IDs are not updated and maintained properly, so
they might mislead users.
