Hello, dear Maintainer.

Recently I have upgraded my very old system shipped with Debian Jessie.

I have upgraded a pile of packages. Among others there were:
--------------------
linux-headers-amd64                        3.16+61 => 3.16+63
linux-image-amd64                          3.16+61 => 3.16+63
linux-libc-dev                            3.16.3-2 => 3.16.7-2
linux-libc-dev:i386                       3.16.3-2 => 3.16.7-2
broadcom-sta-dkms                   6.30.223.248-1 => 6.30.223.248-2
--------------------

After a while I found that my wifi card cannot connect to my router.

I started looking for roots of the problem, and realized that the
problem is sprcifically with *wl* driver. I attach syslog cut for your
consideration.

PS: Now I have to send this email via another computer because my own
laptop is not able to connect the Internet.
I also wanna note that I've already tried to rebuild/reinstall different
wl modules from different packages broadcom-sta-dkms with different
kernels (3.16.0-4, 3.16-2, 3.2.0-x). I cannot find a pair
(kernel-module) that works fine. I cannot understand what goes wrong and
specifically need somebody's help.
