4.3-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: James Hogan <james.hogan@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 1b4a5ddb127caf125e14551ebd334be1acf21805 upstream. Add helper macro builtin_mips_cdmm_driver() for builtin CDMM drivers that don't do anything special in init and have no exit. The module_mips_cdmm_driver() helper isn't really appropriate for drivers that can't be built as a module.
