this issue has been fixed in the staging-next repo, the fix is probably still on its way to the wireless repo. FYI, the commit on staging-next is:

-----------------
commit 37c962d195005d009e130e65a9e55960996c3cab
Author: Roland Vossen <rvossen@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Wed Jun 29 16:48:22 2011 -0700

staging: brcm80211: fix for reported log spam problem

Every few minutes, this message would appear in syslog:

ieee80211 ph0: wl_ops_bss_info_changed: BSS idle: true (implement)

The message has been deleted, the driver requires no special action on this
particular event (). See: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38162
-----------------

Bye, Roland.
