The default __UNIQUE_ID macro in compiler.h fails to work for some drivers:
drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/sdio.c:615:1: error: redefinition of
'__UNIQUE_ID_firmware615'
BRCMF_FW_NVRAM_DEF(4354, "brcmfmac4354-sdio.bin", "brcmfmac4354-sdio.txt");
This adds a copy of the version we use for gcc-4.3 and higher, as the same
one works with all versions of clang that I could find in svn (2.6 and higher).

I applied the patch to kbuild.git#kbuild, but can you tell me with which
commit and config you get such failure. I only see a single
MODULE_FIRMWARE() call in the expansion of BRCMF_FW_NVRAM_DEF(), which
should work with line numbers as well. And I can't reproduce it with
today's linux-next. If there is some issue with code not yet in
linux-next, it needs to be worked around, because older GCCs did not
have __COUNTER__.

I wrote this patch in early January before Arend van Spriel changed the
code with the patch below. I wasn't aware of his change, but that explains
why you don't see the problem any more.

brcmfmac: fix BRCMF_FW_NVRAM_DEF macro for older gcc compilers
With gcc < 4.3 __UNIQUE_ID does not create unique ids with the macro
BRCMF_FW_NVRAM_DEF. Fix this by removing the MODULE_FIRMWARE instance
for the nvram file. This file is not in linux-firmware repo so it may
not be needed anyway. Otherwise consider this as a temporary fix.
