Fellow wireless developers:
In http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1202.1/01964.html, Geert
Uytterhoeven lists the following warnings as occurring in mainline V3.3-rc3. The
list is considerably smaller than were found for V3.2. In addition, there are no
longer any build errors for wireless.
I'm pretty sure the remaining warnings are not present in the current
wireless-testing code using "gcc (SUSE Linux) 4.6.2", but I'm posting them so
that you know some compiler/architecture combination reports a problem. The
warnings are as follows:
+ src/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath5k/base.c: warning: return from incompatible
pointer type: => 84, 85:1
+ src/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath6kl/init.c: warning: 'hw' may be used
uninitialized in this function: => 1377:26

uninitialized in this function: => 915
+ src/drivers/net/wireless/brcm80211/brcmsmac/aiutils.c: warning: 'in' may be
