[PATCH] [WATCHDOG] mpc8xxx_wdt: fix modular build

From: Anton Vorontsov
Date: Wed Aug 13 2008 - 08:23:54 EST


This patch fixes following build error when mpc8xxx_wdt is selected to
build as a module:

drivers/watchdog/mpc8xxx_wdt.c:304: error: redefinition of '__inittest'
drivers/watchdog/mpc8xxx_wdt.c:298: error: previous definition of '__inittest' was here
drivers/watchdog/mpc8xxx_wdt.c:304: error: redefinition of 'init_module'
drivers/watchdog/mpc8xxx_wdt.c:298: error: previous definition of 'init_module' was here

Thanks for noticing!

Unfortunately I don't see any elegant way to fix this. In the long term,
it would be great if we could work with misc (thus watchdog) subsystem at
arch_initcall() time (yes, we need this early on 8xx). Until this happen,
I think this patch is the best fix we can do.
