Hi Carlos.

It works! I applied your patch to the port, changed the PCI slot, reboot and
the card is working well. I don’t understand what happened before, I have
already tested all three free slots.

Nevertheless, I have some "need multicast update callback" messages on dmesg:

% dmesg -a | grep malo
malo0: <Marvell Libertas 88W8335 802.11g Wireless Adapter> mem

% pciconf -lv

    vendor     = 'Marvell Technology Group Ltd.'
    device     = '88w8335 [Libertas] 802.11b/g Wireless'
    class      = network
    subclass   = ethernet

Thank you very much, I was about returning the card to the shop!

Best regards,
Juan

P.S.: I am at your disposal to further test the driver. Also, I’m opening a new
PR suggesting to improve a bit the malo(4) man page.
