Hello! I have checked the "__refdata" tag that appears in the file "drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pci-keystone.c" and it is needed. The tag has been there since the creation of the file on commit 6e0832fa432e and nothing has changed since that would make it redundant. The reason it is needed is because the struct references "ks_pcie_probe", which is a function tagged as "__init", so the compiler will most likely complain about the "__refdata" being removed. Should I send a patch to add a comment explaining why it is a necessary tag as recommended in "include/linux/init.h"? > [...] so optimally document why the __ref is needed and why it's OK). Thanks for your time, Sergio M. Iglesias.
