These two patches are needed to fix rt2800usb to work on my Powerbook G4
Titanium. The first one is not an error in the rt2x00 code, but a
work-around for a compiler error in gcc 4.4.5 for the PowerPC. The second
patch fixes the internal storage of the eeprom contents.

John,
I'm not sure what should be done with number 1. Should these kind of
compiler work-arounds be a prt of the kernel? AFAIK, this bug was not
in the x86 or x86_64 versions of gcc. On the chance that you think it
should be in 3.1, I have marked it to be sent to stable.
Patch number 2 should be applied to 3.1 and backported to stable.
Larry
