Subject: [PATCH] misc/cs5535: Fix section mismatch derived from cs5535_mfgpt_drv variable

>From my build.log:

WARNING: drivers/misc/cs5535-mfgpt.o(.data+0x0): Section mismatch in reference from the variable cs5535_mfgpt_drv to the function .devinit.text:cs5535_mfgpt_probe()
The variable cs5535_mfgpt_drv references
the function __devinit cs5535_mfgpt_probe()
If the reference is valid then annotate the
variable with __init* or __refdata (see linux/init.h) or name the variable:
*driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console,

This patch fixes the warning.

Tested with linux-next (next-20101231)
