Subject: pcmcia: sharpsl: don't discard sharpsl_pcmcia_ops
From: Arnd Bergmann <[email protected]>
commit fdc858a466b738d35d3492bc7cf77b1dac98bf7c upstream.
The sharpsl_pcmcia_ops structure gets passed into
sa11xx_drv_pcmcia_probe, where it gets accessed at run-time,
unlike all other pcmcia drivers that pass their structures
into platform_device_add_data, which makes a copy.
This means the gcc warning is valid and the structure
must not be marked as __initdata.
Without this patch, building collie_defconfig results in:
drivers/pcmcia/pxa2xx_sharpsl.c:22:31: fatal error: mach-pxa/hardware.h: No
such file or directory
compilation terminated.
