Subject: Re: [PATCH 0/6] constify pci_error_handlers structures

Another issue arises in the files drivers/infiniband/hw/hfi1/pcie.c and
drivers/infiniband/hw/qib/qib_pcie.c, where the pci_error_handlers
structure is defined in one file and used in another file.  The structure
definition references various functions that are static in the same file.
Should I try to move those functions to the file containing the pci_driver
structure?  Or leave the functions where they are and remove the static
annotation?

thanks,
julia
