I.e. the warning is a false positive for now. But given how small pci_register_set_vga_state() is, it appears appropriate to drop the __init annotation. -- Stefan Richter -=====-==-=- --== ==-=- http://arcgraph.de/sr/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
