Here's a patch for the wireless/arlan driver for PROC_FS=n.
Currently it defines both a function and a macro for
init_arlan_proc() if PROC_FS=n.  This causes a bunch of
compile-time errors.

It looks to me like it should always call the init_arlan_proc()
(and cleanup_arlan_proc()) functions since it inits some sysctl tables.
Or am I misunderstanding it?

Thanks,
