Subjectlinux-next: build failure after merge of the final tree (wireless tree related)
Hi John,

After merging the final tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc allyesconfig)
failed like this:

drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath6kl/built-in.o: In function `htc_start':
(.opd+0x600): multiple definition of `htc_start'
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/built-in.o:(.opd+0x3e40): first defined here
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath6kl/built-in.o: In function `.htc_stop':
(.text+0x7b40): multiple definition of `.htc_stop'
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/built-in.o:(.text+0x67b34): first defined here
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath6kl/built-in.o: In function `.htc_start':
(.text+0x7d18): multiple definition of `.htc_start'
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/built-in.o:(.text+0x67ba0): first defined here
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath6kl/built-in.o: In function `htc_stop':
(.opd+0x5e8): multiple definition of `htc_stop'
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/built-in.o:(.opd+0x3e28): first defined here

Probably caused by commit bdcd81707973 ("Add ath6kl cleaned up driver").

I have reverted commit 392e741939dd ("Merge branch 'ath6kl-next' of
master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvalo/ath6kl") for today.

John, this has happened a couple of times before where people have just
copied an existing driver that happens to have some badly named global
variables. :-(
