Subject: Input: gscps2 - fix MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE invocation
From: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 6c8afa88adce613c23f27e719f805cc2a6441b07 upstream.
The patch "module: fix types of device tables aliases" newly requires
that invocations of
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(type, name);
come *after* the definition of `name'. That is reasonable, but gscps2
wasn't doing this. Fix it.
