Subject: net: move sb1250-mac's probe function to .devinit.text
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ffe8553f8871dabf61d49e7f97a2c6cbc7dc23cb;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

net: move sb1250-mac's probe function to .devinit.text

A pointer to sbmac_probe is passed to the core via
platform_driver_register and so the function must not disappear when the
.init sections are discarded.  Otherwise (if also having HOTPLUG=y)
unbinding and binding a device to the driver via sysfs will result in an
oops as does a device being registered late.

An alternative to this patch is using platform_driver_probe instead of
platform_driver_register plus removing the pointer to the probe function
from the struct platform_driver.
