If the skb allocation fails, the current error path calls
dev_kfree_skb_irq() with a NULL argument.  Also, 'err' is not being used.

The problem here is that the bcm34xx driver and the ieee80211
stack do not agree on what channels are possible for 802.11a.
The ieee80211 stack only wants channels between 34 and 165, while
the bcm43xx driver accepts anything from 0 to 200. I made the
bcm43xx driver comply with the ieee80211 stack expectations, by
using the proper constants.

Check for valid MAC address in SPROM fields instead of relying on
PHY type while setting the MAC address in the networking subsystem,
as some devices have multiple PHYs.
