ath9k compilation error

Hi!

I hope this is the right place to report this. If not, I would appreciate 
directions to the correct mailing list. In that case, sorry for spamming! :-)

I'm getting an error when compiling the ath9k driver in 
compat-wireless-2010-04-11. The version 2010-04-04 compiles fine after fixing a 
simple

First I do:

./scripts/driver-select ath9k

The I run "make", and after some time I get the following:

   CC [M]  /home/tmac/src/compat-wireless-2010-04-11/net/mac80211/main.o
/home/tmac/src/compat-wireless-2010-04-11/net/mac80211/main.c: In function 
‘ieee80211_alloc_hw’:

implicit declaration of function ‘__hw_addr_init’

make[3]: *** [_module_/home/tmac/src/compat-wireless-2010-04-11] Error 2

I want to try the newest driver because I have a lot of dropout problems when 
using my "Atheros Communications Inc. AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter 
(PCI-Express) (rev 01)"

gcc (Debian 4.4.3-7) 4.4.3
