2.5 kernels up to 2.5.72 fail to compile with the following error:
<-- snip -->
...
LD
drivers/net/wireless/built-in.o
drivers/net/wireless/atmel.o(.rodata+0x1a0):
multiple definition of `frequency_list'
drivers/net/wireless/airo.o(.rodata+0x0): first defined here
make[3]: *** [drivers/net/wireless/built-in.o] Error 1
<-- snip -->
the patch below makes both frequency_list static.
I've tested the compilation with 2.5.72.
