Why? Broadcom refuses to release any info on their hardware. Why
should anyone spend time prying the lid off a welded-shut trashcan
when they can spend much less time writing drivers for chipsets with
documentation. Well, more documentation than Broadcom. Which is to
say 'any'.
There are alternatives to Broadcom. Just buy them.
