[PATCH 37/62] net: move am79c961's probe function to .devinit.text

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de>

A pointer to am79c961_probe is passed to the core via
platform_driver_register and so the function must not disappear when the
.init sections are discarded.  Otherwise (if also having HOTPLUG=y)
unbinding and binding a device to the driver via sysfs will result in an
oops as does a device being registered late.

An alternative to this patch is using platform_driver_probe instead of
platform_driver_register plus removing the pointer to the probe function
from the struct platform_driver.
