Unfortunately we can't delete this function now even though it's empty with your changes, because drivers/pci/probe.o is unconditionally linked into the kernel when CONFIG_PCI even when an architecture (such as sparc64) doesn't use the majority of the code in it. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-pci" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
