why not just change FFT_NUM_SAMPLES to a #define
or get rid if FFT_NUM_SAMPLES altogether?

$ git grep -w FFT_NUM_SAMPLES
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/dfs.c:static const int FFT_NUM_SAMPLES   = 
(NUM_DIFFS + 1);
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/dfs.c:   int max_bin[FFT_NUM_SAMPLES];
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/dfs.c:           if (num_fft_packets < 
(FFT_NUM_SAMPLES)) {
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/dfs.c:           for (i = 0; i < 
FFT_NUM_SAMPLES; i++)
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/dfs.c:           if (num_fft_packets < 
(FFT_NUM_SAMPLES)) {
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/dfs.c:           for (i = 0; i < 
FFT_NUM_SAMPLES; i++)
