[lm-sensors] [PATCH] hwmon: Fix spurious section mismatch warning in sht15.c

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Fix spurious section mismatch warnings, caused due to reference from
variable sht_drivers to
 __devinit/__devexit functions sht15_probe()/remove().

 We were warned by the following warnings:

the function __devinit sht15_probe()

variable with __init* or __refdata (see linux/init.h) or name the variable:
