Hi there,

if somebody is interested in a janitortask, here is one:

Like in <kerneldoc>/pci.txt mentioned, the "struct pci_device_id" in 
drivers should be __devinitdata , to save place.
Each entry of that type takes 28 or 32 bits (depending on the 
architecture), and many drivers are for chips with a handfull of these 
entrys.

A point to start is:
cd <kernelsource>/drivers
fgrep -r "static struct pci_device_id" |grep -v "__devinitdata"

Sure it's better to look for the others like 
__init/_exit/__devinit/__devexit,... too, that make that automagicially.
The ALSA-drivers have been done by me.

Best regards,
Henne

P.S.: Kerneljanitors is a great thing.
