and
net/ieee80211/ieee80211_crypt_ccmp.c:static inline void xor_block(u8 * b, u8 * a, size_t len)
At least one of them has to be renamed.

Why? Not that I would really mind renaming one of these, but I don't see
a good reason for it. ieee80211_crypt_ccmp.c should not include
linux/raid/xor.h and the xor_block() in CCMP code is a static inline
function that should not show up outside the scope of this file. Do we
have some magic that makes exported symbols pollute name space for
inlined helper functions?

I'll rename the raid version to 'xor_blocks' in the md-accel series. [
I would have suggested xor_n_blocks except that xor_blocks is limited to
5-blocks (MAX_XOR_BLOCKS) ]
