The most important is probably regression fix in handling platform
NVRAM. That bug stopped hardware from being properly calibrated breaking
e.g. 5 GHz for Netgear R8000.
Other than that it triggers memory dumps when experiencing firmware
problems which is important for debugging purposes.

brcmfmac: do not use internal roaming engine by default
|
|
|
|
Some evidence of curing disconnects with this disabled, so make it a default.
|
|
Can be overridden with module parameter roamoff=0
