This is just silly.

Please move this variable declaration and initialization into the
YF_PROTOTYPE basic block in the code below it, like this:

#ifdef YF_PROTOTYPE		/* Support for prototype hardware errata. */
		} else if ((yp->flags & HasMACAddrBug)  &&
			int yf_size = sizeof(struct yellowfin_desc);

			!ether_addr_equal(le32_to_cpu(yp->rx_ring_dma +
						      entry * yf_size),
					  dev->dev_addr) &&
			!ether_addr_equal(le32_to_cpu(yp->rx_ring_dma +
						      entry * yf_size),
					  "\377\377\377\377\377\377")) {
			if (bogus_rx++ == 0)
				netdev_warn(dev, "Bad frame to %pM\n",
					    buf_addr);
#endif

Thanks.
