[PATCH] 2.6.13-rc1-mm1 unresolved symbols

ipw2200 in 2.6.13-rc1-mm1 makes use of is_broadcast_ether_addr, which was 
removed.

The attached patch restores that function for now.

Ah, you have a kernel.org account.  It seems that something is playing up
at kernel.org, preventing 2.6.13-rc1-mm1 and 2.6.13-rc1-git* from getting
to the servers.
