Then you could replace

+static int __init sprd_gpio_init(void)
+{
+ return platform_driver_register(&sprd_gpio_driver);
+}
+subsys_initcall(sprd_gpio_init);
+
+static void __exit sprd_gpio_exit(void)
+{
+ platform_driver_unregister(&sprd_gpio_driver);
+}
+module_exit(sprd_gpio_exit);

with

module_platform_driver(sprd_gpio_driver);
