Subject: [PATCH] video: da8xx-fb: fix section mismatch warning

This patch includes below fixes:
1. Mark fb_probe as __devinit to fix below section mismatch warning.
WARNING: drivers/video/built-in.o(.data+0x13c): Section mismatch in reference from the variable da8xx_fb_driver to the function .init.text:fb_probe()
The variable da8xx_fb_driver references
the function __init fb_probe()
If the reference is valid then annotate the
variable with __init* or __refdata (see linux/init.h) or name the variable:
*_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console,

2. fb_remove is marked __devexit,
thus add __devexit_p around reference to fb_remove.
