Somehow the Ubuntu guys managed to sneak this compile error into the
tree:

commit ce9e3d9953c8cb67001719b5516da2928e956be4

      [mv643xx] Add pci device table for auto module loading.

drivers/net/mv643xx_eth.c:1560: error: array type has incomplete element type
drivers/net/mv643xx_eth.c:1561: warning: implicit declaration of function ‘PCI_DEVICE’
drivers/net/mv643xx_eth.c:1561: error: ‘PCI_VENDOR_ID_MARVELL’ undeclared here (not in a function)
drivers/net/mv643xx_eth.c:1561: error: ‘PCI_DEVICE_ID_MARVELL_MV64360’ undeclared here (not in a function)


This change is also wrong, the autoloading works perfect with 2.6.18,
no need to add random PCI ids.

Please revert this change and route changes via jgarzik etc...

Correct, I missed the include for linux/pci.h.

This patch has been trailing our tree since 2.6.12. Could you help me to
understand what in this driver will cause it to be autoloaded by udev
when compiled as a module?

See commit ce9e3d9953c8cb67001719b5516da2928e956be4, platform devices
have now a modalias entry in sysfs. The network card is not a PCI
device.
