Subject: scsi: sim710: fix build warning
From: Sudip Mukherjee <sudipm.mukherjee@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 648a0a7da34f281410e8e3a59de8c13ec6ea380a upstream.
We are getting build warning about:
"Section mismatch in reference from the variable sim710_eisa_driver to
the function .init.text:sim710_eisa_probe()
The variable sim710_eisa_driver references the function __init
sim710_eisa_probe()"
sim710_eisa_probe() was having __init but that was being referenced from
sim710_eisa_driver.
