Not all drivers have been converted yet (else we would quickly merge
the branch ;-})

The wiki page cited by Patrick above says "not ready for general testing",
and that is true.

But:

	https://wiki.NetBSD.org/Testing_new_wifi/

has instructions what you need to exclude from evbarm kernels, I guess
I should add the similar list from the SEVEN_WIFI kernel config and instead
switch over to use GENERIC for testing on amd64 too.
