When the driver is built-in, the missing semicolon after structure initializer is "compensated" by MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() macro being empty and so the initializer using the trailing semicolon on the next line; when the driver is built as a module, compilation error ensues, and as the 'davinci_all_defconfig' has the NAND driver modular, this error prevents DaVinci family kernel from building...
