[PATCH] twl4030-gpio: drop __devexit markings from remove func

From: Mike Frysinger
Date: Thu Oct 15 2009 - 01:24:26 EST


The gpio_twl4030_probe() function calls gpio_twl4030_remove(), and the
former has __devinit, so the latter cannot use __devexit. Otherwise we
hit the section mismatch warning:

WARNING: drivers/gpio/built-in.o(.devinit.text+0x71a): Section mismatch
in reference from the function _gpio_twl4030_probe() to the function
.devexit.text:_gpio_twl4030_remove()
The function __devinit _gpio_twl4030_probe() references a function
__devexit _gpio_twl4030_remove().
This is often seen when error handling in the init function uses
functionality in the exit path.
The fix is often to remove the __devexit annotation of
_gpio_twl4030_remove() so it may be used outside an exit section.
