[Xen-devel] [PATCH] linux: satisfy newer modpost requirements
pcifront_scan_root() calls pci_scan_bus_parented() possibly after core kernel initialization, but that latter function is marked __devinit. While HOTPLUG can be turned off only under EMBEDDED, 2.6.25''s modpost still (validly) catches this as an incorrect reference. Marking pcifront_scan_root() __init_refok seems too dangerous, however, so instead the much more streamlined pcifront_backend_changed() is being marked so, and the rest of the offending dependencies is being marked __devinit, and XEN_PCIDEV_FRONTEND now selects HOTPLUG to make it independend of any changes in HOTPLUG''s prompt visibility. As usual, written and tested on 2.6.25-rc5 and made apply to the 2.6.18 tree without further testing.
