It looks like this was somehow triggered as part of the reorganisation
of the WiFi directory structure.

This is surprising and also worrying, any ideas why? It would be good to
understand the root cause in case there's a bug in wireless drivers
directory reorganisation.
No, I didn't make much effort to check though since the use of ifdef was
clearly a bug waiting to happen anyway, I was more surprised it worked
at all than anything.
Michal Marek explains[1] that this is due to commit cf4f21938e13
("kbuild: Allow to specify composite modules with modname-m") and has
nothing to do with the wireless drivers reorganisation. I'll drop this
patch as Michal will apply his fix to the kbuild tree.
