[2.4 patch] fixup after synclink update

[2.4 patch] fixup after synclink update

[Adrian Bunk]

2.4.23-rc contains a synclink update that contains the following change:

<--  snip  -->

 static struct pci_driver synclink_pci_driver = {
        name:           "synclink",
        id_table:       synclink_pci_tbl,
        probe:          synclink_init_one,
-       remove:         __devexit_p(synclink_remove_one),
+       remove:         synclink_remove_one,
 };

<--  snip  -->


This change causes the following compile error when compiling the driver 
statically into a kernel without hotplug support:

<--  snip  -->

...
        --end-group \
        -o vmlinux
local symbol 0: discarded in section `.text.exit' from drivers/char/char.o
make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1

<--  snip  -->


The following patch reverts this bogus change:

Please apply for 2.4.23-rc2.
