Such calls from arch platform code are going to be "obj-y" So if this is built into the modular driver, I can't see how it can work. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-next" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
