broadcom-sta & bcmwl are duplicates of each other.
One is packaged and maintained by archlinux/debian the other one was our
self packaged one.
We should merge the two.
On the surface the source code is the same, there is slightly better
dkms packaging on the broadcom-sta package. However it is missing
modaliases stanzas.
I think we should port the modaliases to the new package, and remove the
old one.
