[PATCH] aic7xxx/aicasm build failure w/gcc-3.4.6

[Bob Tracy]

Second try: originally reported this back on April 17th.  2.6.X
kernel builds started failing after I upgraded my compiler from
gcc-3.3.X to gcc-3.4.6:

make -C drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aicasm
(...)
gcc -I/usr/include -I. aicasm.c aicasm_symbol.c aicasm_gram.c aicasm_macro_gram.c aicasm_scan.c aicasm_macro_scan.c -o aicasm -ldb
aicasm_gram.y:1948: error: conflicting types for 'yyerror'
aicasm_gram.tab.c:3004: error: previous implicit declaration of 'yyerror' was here
aicasm_macro_gram.y:162: error: conflicting types for 'mmerror'
aicasm_macro_gram.tab.c:1196: error: previous implicit declaration of 'mmerror' was here

As a workaround, commenting out or deleting the "void" declarations
for yyerror() and mmerror() in the respective ".y" files fixes the
problem.  A patch to illustrate the offending code is attached, but
there's no "signed-off by" line because I'm certain the final form of
the patch will be different.  The patch applies cleanly to at least
2.6.21 and later kernels.  gcc-3.3 may have been warning about the
type conflicts, but I didn't notice: gcc-3.4 treats the type conflicts
as errors, so I *did* notice :-).

Here's the "gcc -v" output:
