Subject: linux-next: wireless-current tree build failure

Hi John,

Today's linux-next build (powerpc allyesconfig) failed like this:

drivers/net/wireless/ath9k/hw.c: In function 'ath9k_hw_9280_spur_mitigate':
drivers/net/wireless/ath9k/hw.c:4660: internal compiler error: in expand_expr_real_1, at expr.c:9199

Clearly not our fault! :-) I have informed our toolchain person.  This
was using the Debian gcc-4.3.  It also fails using the Debian 4.2
compiler but not the 4.1 one.

For now, I will apply the following patch to just stop it building on
PowerPC.
