drivers/staging/wilc1000/linux_wlan.c: In function ‘wilc1000_wlan_init’:

There were two errors generated by make drivers/staging/wilc1000/linux_wlan.o
One error I have removed second one I will resolve tomorrow. Should I
remove function init_irq defination from #ifdef ? or any better
solution to remove this error?
