I'm trying to build iwlwifi on the fedora kernel to narrow down the
interrupts problem. It fails to build. On a custom (linus) kernel it
builds fine:

hughsie at hughsie-laptop:~/Code/iwlwifi$ make
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.21-1.3144.fc7/source O=
M=/home/hughsie/Code/iwlwifi/compatible/ modules

Fedora kernel bug or simply a bad makefile for iwlwifi?
The ../net/mac80211/ieee80211_rate.h type path looks fishy to me.

Richard.
