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: LD drivers/hwmon/built-in.o WARNING: drivers/hwmon/built-in.o(.data+0x264a0): Section mismatch in reference from the variable sht_drivers to the function .devinit.text:sht15_probe() The variable sht_drivers references the function __devinit sht15_probe() If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __init* or __refdata (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console, WARNING: drivers/hwmon/built-in.o(.data+0x264a4): Section mismatch in reference from the variable sht_drivers to the function .devexit.text:sht15_remove() The variable sht_drivers references the function __devexit sht15_remove() If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __exit* (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console, WARNING: drivers/hwmon/built-in.o(.data+0x264f0): Section mismatch in reference from the variable sht_drivers to the function .devinit.text:sht15_probe() The variable sht_drivers references the function __devinit sht15_probe() If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __init* or __refdata (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console, WARNING: drivers/hwmon/built-in.o(.data+0x264f4): Section mismatch in reference from the variable sht_drivers to the function .devexit.text:sht15_remove() The variable sht_drivers references the function __devexit sht15_remove() If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __exit* (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console, WARNING: drivers/hwmon/built-in.o(.data+0x26540): Section mismatch in reference from the variable sht_drivers to the function .devinit.text:sht15_probe() The variable sht_drivers references the function __devinit sht15_probe() If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __init* or __refdata (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console, WARNING: drivers/hwmon/built-in.o(.data+0x26544): Section mismatch in reference from the variable sht_drivers to the function .devexit.text:sht15_remove() The variable sht_drivers references the function __devexit sht15_remove() If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __exit* (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console, WARNING: drivers/hwmon/built-in.o(.data+0x26590): Section mismatch in reference from the variable sht_drivers to the function .devinit.text:sht15_probe() The variable sht_drivers references the function __devinit sht15_probe() If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __init* or __refdata (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console, ------- Signed-off-by: Rakib Mullick <rakib.mullick@xxxxxxxxx> --- linus/drivers/hwmon/sht15.c 2009-09-22 16:28:07.000000000 +0600 +++ rakib/drivers/hwmon/sht15.c 2009-09-23 14:47:48.000000000 +0600 @@ -619,8 +619,12 @@ static int __devexit sht15_remove(struct return 0; } - -static struct platform_driver sht_drivers[] = { +/* + * sht_drivers simultaneously refers to __devinit and __devexit function + * which causes spurious section mismatch warning.
