I checked and brcmd80211/Makefile has:

subdir-ccflags-$(CONFIG_BRCMDBG)	+= -DDEBUG

I don't understand why brcm80211 uses DEBUG flag like that, but I guess there's
a reason. I think that either _all_ DEBUG uses should be removed from the
driver, or you shouldn't add "#define DEBUG" on your own to any of the files.
So this patch is not the best solution.
