bcmdevs.h:
#define BCM4331_D11N_ID         0x4331  /* 4331 802.11n dualband id */
#define BCM4331_D11N2G_ID       0x4332  /* 4331 802.11n 2.4Ghz band id */
#define BCM4331_D11N5G_ID       0x4333  /* 4331 802.11n 5Ghz band id */

So yes, it looks like new BCM4331 chipset. AFAIK there is no support
for it in wl. Plus no support in b43 or brcm80211.
