The new bnx2fc driver does not build with module support disabled:

 drivers/scsi/bnx2fc/bnx2fc_fcoe.c:1815:17: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
 drivers/scsi/bnx2fc/bnx2fc_fcoe.c:1815:28: error: âMODULE_STATE_LIVEâ undeclared (first use in this function)
 drivers/scsi/bnx2fc/bnx2fc_fcoe.c:1878:17: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
 drivers/scsi/bnx2fc/bnx2fc_fcoe.c:1878:28: error: âMODULE_STATE_LIVEâ undeclared (first use in this function)

and this build breakage has been reported to you two weeks ago:

 http://lkml.org/lkml/2011/3/2/468

In the future please do not push broken code upstream or put it into 
drivers/staging/scsi/ if it has outstanding problems. I'm using the hack below 
for the time being.

Thanks,

	Ingo
