Subject: [PATCH] libertas: Remove unused exports

The libertas driver exports a number of symbols with no in-tree
users; remove these unused exports.  lbs_reset_device() is completely
unused, with no callers at all, so remove the function completely.

A couple of these unused exported symbols are static, which causes the
following build error on ia64 with gcc 4.2.3:

    drivers/net/wireless/libertas/main.c:1375: error: __ksymtab_lbs_remove_mesh causes a section type conflict
    drivers/net/wireless/libertas/main.c:1354: error: __ksymtab_lbs_add_mesh causes a section type conflict

This patch fixes this problem.  I don't have hardware, so this is not
run-tested, but I tested the build with

    CONFIG_LIBERTAS=y
    CONFIG_LIBERTAS_USB=m
    CONFIG_LIBERTAS_CS=m
    CONFIG_LIBERTAS_SDIO=m

and there were no problems with undefined symbols.

Here's the patch that removes the unused exports (and a few more that
I found).
