Well, i'm writing this from 3.10 kernel, so patch has been successful,
apparently.

This is dmesg part after module is inserted:

iwconfig reveals relatively little info:

But it works, reported by gnome's network manager at 54 mb/sec

Title:
  14e4:43b1 Broadcom Corporation Device 43b1 (rev 03) - not supported

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Both during and after installation, 13.04 doesn't support the
  Broadcom-based 802.11ac wifi chipsets.  lspci reports it as "Network
  controller: Broadcom Corporation Device 43b1 (rev 03)".

  Would love to see this worker as it's being a bit of a show stopper for me.
