Greg Kroah-Hartman d4620396d7 Staging: brcm80211: disable drivers except for X86 or MIPS platforms As David points out, the driver is also broken on SPARC, so might as well just only enable it on platforms where people have reported it working, instead of trying to list all of the ones where it doesn't work, as the working platform list is much smaller...

Broadcom brcmsmac (mac80211-based softmac PCIe) and brcmfmac (SDIO) drivers.

Completely open source host drivers, no binary object files.

Support for the following chips:
===============================

    brcmsmac (PCIe)
    Name        Device ID
    BCM4313     0x4727
    BCM43224    0x4353
    BCM43225    0x4357

    brcmfmac (SDIO)
    Name
    BCM4329

Both brcmsmac and brcmfmac drivers require firmware files that need to be
separately downloaded.
