[2.4 patch] fixup after synclink update

From: Adrian Bunk
Date: Tue Nov 18 2003 - 14:07:53 EST


2.4.23-rc contains a synclink update that contains the following change:

<-- snip -->

static struct pci_driver synclink_pci_driver = {
name: "synclink",
id_table: synclink_pci_tbl,
probe: synclink_init_one,
- remove: __devexit_p(synclink_remove_one),
+ remove: synclink_remove_one,
};

<-- snip -->


This change causes the following compile error when compiling the driver
statically into a kernel without hotplug support:

<-- snip -->

...
--end-group \
-o vmlinux
local symbol 0: discarded in section `.text.exit' from drivers/char/char.o
make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1

<-- snip -->


The following patch reverts this bogus change:

--- linux-2.4.23-rc1-full-nohotplug/drivers/char/synclink.c.old 2003-11-18 18:30:06.000000000 +0100

static struct tty_driver serial_driver, callout_driver;



Please apply for 2.4.23-rc2.
