We can add a declaration, but we still need a *definition* somewhere,
right?
drivers/pci/hotplug/ has several drivers that are split over multiple
files. IMHO there is zero benefit to splitting them into multiple
files and one of the downsides is things like this that shouldn't be
global, but are global because of the split.
Not sure it's worth the churn of squashing them together, at least for
ancient things like this. pciehp is a perennial thorn in my side,
though. Every time I look for something, I try two or three files
before finding the right one.
