[Bug 1358966] Re: Broadcom kernel module failed to build [error: macro "alloc_netdev" requires 4 arguments, but only 3 given]
This issue is also still valid for the 4.2.0-35-generic Kernel, but is
working for the older 3.13.0-85 for me. However on this specific kernel
there seems to be an alternative driver working fine.
