A modified version of the wl driver (just commented the errors out, so
they wont pop up) can be found here:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/8gq5vz3bghi1hhu/wl.tar.gz

The compiled-binary version can be found here:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/50hzvm0pbbcxzlq/wl.ko

It's not a permament fix but annoying errors will dissapear.

To install just run locate wl.ko, go in the directory that it pops up
and replace the wl.ko file. Remember to always keep a copy of the
original file, just in case.

Hope I helped someone.

P.S. I am not sure if download links like this are allowed.
