Well, the devexit part in initializing the function table is supposed
to be there to prevent references to stripped __exit functions. It
should work to make the function a normal static function and refer
to it directly in the structure initialization as it was before. It
is definitely worth trying. It would be nice to get the 5380 driver
working again. I got a little farther on getting serial working, but
I haven't had much time to work on it this year.
