HostAP 0.0.4 depmod -ae and Makefile

[Jason Boxman]

All:

When compiling the latest HostAP against my 2.4.22-ac1 kernel, I encountered 
the following issues.

I ran a `make` and all was well.  When I ran `make install` it exploded 
because I didn't have an /etc/pcmcia directory.  It's a desktop system, so I 
don't need pcmcia installed.

(Actually, this is irrelevant since I just compiled latest CVS and it works 
fine.  The Makefile issue still exists, though.)

When I run `depmod -ae`, I have unresolved symbols.

sarah:/usr/src/hostap-0.0.4# depmod -ae
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.22-ac1/net/hostap.o
depmod:         hostap_get_crypto_ops
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in 
/lib/modules/2.4.22-ac1/net/hostap_crypt_wep.o
depmod:         hostap_register_crypto_ops
depmod:         hostap_unregister_crypto_ops
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.22-ac1/pcmcia/hostap_cs.o
depmod:         register_pccard_driver_R1c442d6c
depmod:         CardServices_Re4eef0a4
depmod:         unregister_pccard_driver_Rdb348cd2

However, hostap_pci loads just fine.
