Hi all,
I have had compiler errors when making compat-2011-06-23 - compat-2011-06-26.?

There appears to be a problem with nl80211.c as you see in the error messages. However when I copied compat-2011-06-22 version's nl80211.c and nl80211.h to compat-2011-06-26 (replacing its original), it compiled and worked just fine.
Thanks!

This patch: nl80211: use netlink consistent dump feature for BSS dumps, submitted by Johannes appears to be the culprit and I already notified him.
In the mean time you can reverse it to complete c/w compilation.
