I think it's a bug to mark this function as __init. It breaks
deferred probing and detaching/reattaching the device trough sysfs.
My bad, I have tried to avoid mismatch section warnings came up from
dw_pcie_host_init() which is annotated as __init. Do you think we need
to remove __init from dw_pcie_host_init() declaration and fix the
drivers accordingly?
Yes, that's probably best. Initially, it was ok because all front-ends
of the dw-pcie driver were using module_platform_probe(), but that
is not the case any more, so now at least keystone, layerscape and
spear13xx are broken, and I think it's safer to change dw_pcie_host_init
than to rely on everyone using module_platform_probe() correctly.
