2.4.21 kernel build failure: multiple definitions of irq_desc_t

["" <daniel@singingtree.com>]

Hello all,
    I'm having trouble trying to build 2.4.21. I've attached the error generated
below. It appears that irq_desc is defined both as a function and as an array of
irq_desc_t. Help?

Thanks,
Daniel
