From f0b1e5892478d5bd683ff01bd95dc7bfc87f8e42 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Uwe Kleine-König Date: Sat, 28 Mar 2009 00:27:03 +0100 Subject: [MTD] [MAPS] move sa1100 flash's probe function to .devinit.text MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit A pointer to sa1100_mtd_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.
