Hi Rajaneesh

If you are using a distro kernel (i.e. if you did not configure/build
the Broadcom driver in yourself) you should tell your distro
maintainers (i.e. Ubuntu support), because they are likely to be the
quickest to respond to you, and they will be in the best position to
find out/chase up what this is with whoever is responsible.  Also if
this is a bug they will need to get it fixed for their other users
too.
If it's caused by an open source driver that's in the kernel tree they
_should_ then push their fix to the wireless/Broadcom devs working on
the mainline kernel, that is not your responsibility ;-)

Cheers
Julie
