Recent binutils warn about symbols marked as discardable but referenced
when the driver is built-in instead of modularized. Older ones just shut up.

Original explanation:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=100753194504523&w=2

Corrected mainly in 2.4.17-pre6 (and some leftovers in following pres).
>From ChangeLog-2.4.17:

pre6:
...
- Create __devexit_p() function and use that on 
  drivers which need it to make it possible to
  use newer binutils                (Keith Owens)

OK.

My ISP has reached the spam-black-lists ? I'm beginning to think that

list will be banned...
