commit 8562043606430185cad26d085d46adcc7ad67fd1 is broken, causing:
CC drivers/ide/pci/cmd64x.o
CC drivers/ide/pci/hpt366.o
drivers/ide/pci/hpt366.c:1428: error: hpt366_chipsets causes a section type conflict
and therefore should be reverted.
The problem arises because hpt366 has other data marked with __devinitdata,
so the compiler tries to define the initdata section with read-write
attributes at one point, and read-only attributes when encountering the
const-but-devinitdata declaration:
static struct hpt_info hpt36x __devinitdata = {
static struct hpt_info hpt370 __devinitdata = {
static struct hpt_info hpt370a __devinitdata = {
...
static const struct ide_port_info hpt366_chipsets[] __devinitdata = {
If we want ide_port_info to be read-only initdata, then we need
__devroinitdata and __roinitdata tags.
Note: it doesn't show up in cmd64x.c because that file contains no other
data marked as initdata or devinitdata.
