For our upstream brcm80211 drivers we build for a number of architectures
including MIPS. In recent builds we get an error/warning:

the previous definition

As it is likely a Kconfig issue I have attached the config file that was
used for the build. I started out with mips_config.old and ran 'make
oldconfig' and just hit enter a couple of times selecting all defaults which
ends up with the mips_config file having the issue. As I have no clue what
Kconfig combinations are valid I am hoping anyone on the mips list can shed
some light on this.

this isn't a config issue, it's a clear bug which

https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/9960/

intends to fix.

Excellent. Thanks, Jonas.

Regards,
Arend
