Hi,

 with the attached patch my b44 ethernet works again.


Thanks,
 Christoph

Ethernet driver b44 does register ssb by it's pcihost_wrapper
and doesn't set ssb_chipcommon. A check on this value
introduced with commit d53cdbb94a52a920d5420ed64d986c3523a56743
and ea2db495f92ad2cf3301623e60cb95b4062bc484 triggers:

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 00000010
IP: [<c1266c36>] ssb_is_sprom_available+0x16/0x30
