A revised patch for the warning is attached. The fix relatively simple and the 
only difference between this one and the earlier version is that routine 
rtl_lps_change_work_callback() was moved from pci.c to ps.c. As a result, it 
will be available for ARM and other architectures without a PCI bus.
