See

As you'll see, I've isolated the iwlwifi-5k code in its own directory
and modified the MUNGE code such that all iwlwifi-5k symbols are unique.
The build time stuff is kind of ugly since MUNGE is run for each flavour
after it is copied to the build directory, but this way you can maintain
your driver code without the munged symbols. It will make updates from
you much simpler.

Please clone and build from
git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-hardy-lum.git . I don't have an
iwlwifi 5K wireless device, so I'll have to depend on you to tell me if
things are working correctly.
