From: Sudip Mukherjee sudipm.mukherjee@gmail.com

commit 648a0a7da34f281410e8e3a59de8c13ec6ea380a upstream.

We are getting build warning about: "Section mismatch in reference from the variable sim710_eisa_driver to the function .init.text:sim710_eisa_probe() The variable sim710_eisa_driver references the function __init sim710_eisa_probe()"

sim710_eisa_probe() was having __init but that was being referenced from sim710_eisa_driver.
