Do you have the exact error message? I don't know why this is failing.

Then I checked debug.h I see that it's supposed to be handled already:

#ifdef CONFIG_RTLWIFI_DEBUG
void rtl_debug_add_one(struct ieee80211_hw *hw);
void rtl_debug_remove_one(struct ieee80211_hw *hw);
void rtl_debugfs_add_topdir(void);
void rtl_debugfs_remove_topdir(void);
#else
#define rtl_debug_add_one(hw)
#define rtl_debug_remove_one(hw)
#define rtl_debugfs_add_topdir()
#define rtl_debugfs_remove_topdir()
#endif

But the else part looks weird, I'm used to using inline functions
instead of defines:

static inline void rtl_debug_add_one(struct ieee80211_hw *hw) {}
static inline void rtl_debug_remove_one(struct ieee80211_hw *hw) {}
static inline void rtl_debugfs_add_topdir(void) {}
static inline void rtl_debugfs_remove_topdir(void) {}

Inline functions also make it possible for the compiler to check the
types are correct.
