H A Dwm8400-regulator.cdiff 5dbdf7354821e00e4419ac3520d05d126857d56e Mon Jan 12 23:25:05 CET 2009 Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de> move wm8400-regulator's probe function to .devinit.text

A pointer to wm8400_regulator_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.
