After merging the wireless-next tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64

drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/rtl8188ee/dm.c:30:18: fatal error: wifi.h: No such file or directory

Caused by commit f0eb856e0b6c ("rtlwifi: rtl8188ee: Add new driver").
Forgot a file?

I do not understand. File wifi.h is definitely there and is in
drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/. Use of that directory as a source of include
files is handled by "ccflags-y += -I drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi
-D__CHECK_ENDIAN__" in the Makefile for rtl8188ee. In fact, it builds just fine
here.

What am I missing?

I don't know, sorry. The tree I have also has
drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/wifi.h. All the other uses of wifi.h in the
other drivers below that directory use

#include "../wifi.h"

Maybe it has something to do with using O=... on the command line (which I do).

I was trying to get rid of the relative directory notation, but I guess I screwed it up somewhere. Rather than "wifi.h, I suspect I should have used <wifi.h>.
