Not as different as for USB, but still quite a bit.

A few things I ran accross in wlan land: different memory allocations,
interesting mbuf differences, totally different privilege handling, a
few things that NetBSD should get like taskqueues and timer taskqueues,
differences in interface stats, sometimes recursive locking, different
module support, and probably a lot more minor things that I forgot.
