Thanks... ;)
Actually, I think I submitted an even uglier macro called
DECLARE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE... might have been the first kernel patch I
ever sent? In any case, it should certainly have been kindly rejected.
After it hit mainline Andrew Morton just about choked on his tea and
renamed it DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE.

This macro is used to create a struct pci_device_id array.
Yeah, and it's a horrid macro that deserves to be removed, please don't
use it in more places.
Actually, if you could just remove it, that would be best, sorry, I'm
not going to take these patches.
Feel free to just remove the macro; it serves no purpose but to confuse.
That said, the underlying issue that the macro was supposed to resolve
(if I recall correctly) was to make sure that all the struct
pci_device_id instances were marked as const, as per the PCI
documentation; if there's something checkpatch should be warning for
it's simply that the struct is const.
