Ah, it seems ieee80211_ptr doesn't cause the problem, make unmodified
failed:

Checking kernel compatibility in:
        /lib/modules/2.6.20-gentoo-r6/source//
 * Kernel requires compatibility version:
   - Requires net_device::ieee80211_ptr compat
   - Requires class_dev -> dev API compat
   - Requires to_net_dev API compat
   - Requires device_rename compat
Building compatibility version in 'compatible/' directory:
Copying compatible/ from origin/...done

        Re-use ax25_ptr in net_device for ieee80211_ptr

        Remove DEBUGFS usage (due to class_dev breakage)

        Add to_net_dev back in (newer kernels have it in netdevice.h)

Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?

ieee80211_sysfs doesn't seem to exist in {pre,post}/net/mac80211/
neither in /usr/src/linux.

should it have been in the mac80211-7.0.4 tarball?

Thanks,
