As you guessed, it is not a bug as support for that device has never been enabled. I think your device will use bcma just as my BCM43228 does. I have started developing the patches needed to implement it with b43; however, I have not gotten very far. Could you please confirm that the the PCI ID is 14e4:4358? If that is correct, could you also try the attached patch and report the info that is logged in the dmesg output? I think that Broadcom will be changing brcmsmac to support these devices, but my understanding is that they are concentrating on fullmac devices at the moment.
