The b43 driver in 2.6.25-rc[12] fails to build for arm on an x86_64
box using a cross-compiler:
FATAL: drivers/net/wireless/b43/b43: sizeof(struct ssb_device_id)=6 is
not a modulo of the size of section __mod_ssb_device_table=64.
Fix definition of struct ssb_device_id in mod_devicetable.h
The following patch fixes the build, but given the discussion in
regarding the fix for the module device table definition for m68k [1],
I'm not sure that this patch is the right thing to do. However, the
fix for m68k was implemented in 2.6.25 [2].
