On MIPS with PCI && !HOTPLUG, I'm currently getting the following modpost
warning:
MODPOST vmlinux.o
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x1ce128): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:pci_read_bridge_bases (between 'pcibios_fixup_bus' and 'pcibios_enable_device')
On MIPS I have the call chains pci_scan_child_bus -> pcibios_fixup_bus ->
pci_read_bridge_bases. pci_scan_child_bus can't be __devinit because it
it is an exported symbol, thus pcibios_fixup_bus and pci_read_bridge_bases
can't be either.
For some reason I don't see this issue on x86; I blame compiler differences.
