This seems to happen only with compat-wireless. When testing
USE_KERNEL_HEADERS against full kernel tree, I do not get this type of
issues. I added a workaround to driver_{hostap,prism54}.c to define
__user since that seems to work with both compat-wireless and full
kernel tree. Anyway, I would normally recommend not to define
USE_KERNEL_HEADERS.
