Subject: [PATCH RFT] b43legacy: fix initvals loading on bcm4303

This allows for the correct initial values to be uploaded to bcm4303
devices. It should be correct, but I can't reliably test this as I suspect
there's something going wrong with an hardware rfkill switch on my laptop.
Please test.

Please note that for this patch to be tested a previous patch:
'b43legacy: fix bcm4303 crash'
needs to be applied.

John, please go ahead with this, as it makes bcm4303 devices partially
working.

Thanks.
