Subject: [PATCH 1/8] staging: comedi: add namespace to comedi's
 alloc_subdevices() function

Move the inline alloc_subdevices() function from comedidev.h to
drivers.c and rename it to comedi_alloc_subdevices(). The function
is large enough to warrant being an exported symbol rather than
being an inline in every driver.
