Subject: USB: rtl8187: remove __devinit* from the struct usb_device_id table
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email protected]>
commit a3433179d0822ccfa8e80aa4d1d52843bd2dcc63 upstream.
This structure needs to always stick around, even if CONFIG_HOTPLUG
is disabled, otherwise we can oops when trying to probe a device that
was added after the structure is thrown away.
Thanks to Fengguang Wu and Bjørn Mork for tracking this issue down.
