Subject: [PATCH] b43: N-PHY: Fix the update of coef for the PHY revision >= 3case

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@...onical.com>

The documentation for the PHY update [1] states:

Loop 4 times with index i

    If PHY Revision >= 3
        Copy table[i] to coef[i]
    Otherwise
        Set coef[i] to 0

the copy of the table to coef is currently implemented the wrong way
around, table is being updated from uninitialized values in coeff.
Fix this by swapping the assignment around.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Uninitialized scalar variable")
