Hi John,
After merging the wireless-next tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) produced this warning:

I have no idea what caused that.

Though I suspect commit 8b138d4898a0 ("rtlwifi: rtl8188ee: Enable build
of new driver") - I wonder if the gap between the "-I" and
"drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi" added to ccflags-y is the cause?
I am using gcc 4.6.3 if that matters.

I use 4.7.2.
I'll send a patch with the space removed to see if that helps.

I just tested without the space and it fixes the problem for my Debian
4.7.2 compiler. Removing the space also fixes the problem with finding
include files (after I removed the "../" bits again).

Stephan,
Ah, that was the real error. Thanks for testing.
John: Please take my patch of this evening entitles "[PATCH] rtlwifi: rtl8188ee:
Fix linker warnings" and drop the one by Chen, Chien-Chia entitled "[PATCH]
rtlwifi: rtl8188ee: Fix wrong header path". If we put the ../ into the header
paths, I'll just have to take them out later. We might as well leave them out.
