The block I/O code for the new X-Surf 100 ax88796 driver needs ax_NS8390_init() for error fixup in its block_output function. Export this function so we can lose the lib8380.c include in the X-Surf 100 driver. Signed-off-by: Michael Schmitz <schmitzmic@xxxxxxxxx>
Thanks for your patch!

While that works for the modular case, it doesn't work for the builtin case, as the function is static. You can fix that by adding a non-static wrapper, and exporting that one instead.
