Subject: Missing routines for iwlagn on PowerPC build

I am using a clone of wireless-testing (git describe
master-2011-08-30-272-g811462b) to compile 3.1-rc4 for a Powerbook G4 Titanium.
The default configuration was taken from the standard one that comes with
MintPPC for kernel 2.6.32 as updated for 3.1.

When the build reaches the final stage of the module build, it errors with these
messages:

ERROR: "iwl_dump_fh" [drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwlagn.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "iwl_dump_csr" [drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwlagn.ko] undefined!

I "fixed" it by disabling the build of iwlagn. It appears that the first one
would be fixed by a patch submitted by Johannes and there is probably a second
patch for error #2.

Thanks,

Larry

Please try the following patch which it is already part of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/iwlwifi/iwlwifi.git

but since the kernel.org issue, no one can access it

THanks
