Hi,
 Any ACKs for this patch ? Alternatively, I can instead just patch
vendor-prefix to add "bcm" as an additional Broadcom prefix and just
stick to using bcm. I have told people internally to switch over to
brcm and there are patches for 3.12 that will be migrating to brcm but
I'd rather not have half bcm and half brcm and that will make things
quite confusing.

 Thanks,
