name: "synclink",
id_table: synclink_pci_tbl,
probe: synclink_init_one,
- remove: __devexit_p(synclink_remove_one),
+ remove: synclink_remove_one,};
<-- snip -->
This change causes the following compile error when compiling the driver statically into a kernel without hotplug support:
<-- snip -->
...
--end-group \
-o vmlinuxlocal symbol 0: discarded in section `.text.exit' from drivers/char/char.o
make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1
