Comment (by mmlr):
As mentioned in #7938 just now, the same applies here:
Don't bother investigating this. The native driver has the mentioned
issues, but even if it didn't it doesn't use the FreeBSD compatibility
layer. Since the current userland wireless interface uses the FreeBSD
ioctls to communicate with the drivers, this would have to be "ported"
into the native driver to make it work. Since there is also a, presumably
better tested, FreeBSD driver for this device already, the native one can
simply be dumped. I'll do that as soon as I get around to it.
