Subject: [PATCH 1/4] pci quirks MODPOST warning fix




o MODPOST generates warnings for i386 if kernel is compiled with
  CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y

WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from .text between 'asus_hides_smbus_lpc_ich6' (at offset 0xc0217d58) and 'quirk_cardbus_legacy'
WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from .text between 'asus_hides_smbus_lpc' (at offset 0xc0217fd9) and 'pci_match_id'

o Two quirk functions which are non __init, are accessing data which is
  of type __init.
