Really? If __devinit was defined to do nothing, then the function would not end up in .devinit.text. > So modpost.c or something in the kernel should be updated? modpost.c checks the sections in the binary. So if a macro is defined to nothing, modpost will stop complaining (and of course the check can be cleaned up later).
