From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
The dependencies for LED configuration are highly inconsistent and too complicated at the moment. One of the results is a randconfig failure I get very rarely when LEDS_CLASS is in a loadable module, but the wireless core is built-in:
WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for MAC80211_LEDS Depends on [n]: NET [=y] && WIRELESS [=y] && MAC80211 [=y] && (LEDS_CLASS [=m]=y || LEDS_CLASS [=m]=MAC80211 [=y]) Selected by [m]: - IWLEGACY [=m] && NETDEVICES [=y] && WLAN [=y] && WLAN_VENDOR_INTEL [=y] - IWLWIFI_LEDS [=y] && NETDEVICES [=y] && WLAN [=y] && WLAN_VENDOR_INTEL [=y] && IWLWIFI [=m] && (LEDS_CLASS [=m]=y || LEDS_CLASS [=m]=IWLWIFI [=m]) && (IWLMVM [=m] || IWLDVM [=m])

For iwlwifi, the dependency is wrong, since this config prevents the MAC80211_LEDS code from being part of a built-in MAC80211 driver.
For iwlegacy, this is worse because the driver tries to force-enable the other subsystems, which is both a layering violation and a bug because it will still fail with MAC80211=y and IWLEGACY=m, leading to LEDS_CLASS being a module as well.
The actual link failure in the ath5k driver is a result of MAC80211_LEDS being enabled but not usable. With the Kconfig logic fixed in the Intel drivers, the ath5k driver works as expected again.
