[arm:phy-cleanup 10/10] arch/mips/cavium-octeon/octeon-platform.c:1064:15: error: expected declaration specifiers or '...' before string constant

Hi David,
Is there a reason why there's these MODULE_* macros at the bottom of
this file? From what I can see:
(a) this file can't be built as a module as the Makefile doesn't allow it:
obj-y := cpu.o setup.o octeon-platform.o octeon-irq.o csrc-octeon.o
(b) this file will not be functional as a module anyway, because of the
multiple *_initcall() statements, each of which are translated to
a module_init() call, each of which define an alias to
int init_module(void) - and that will cause a build error.
Can we just kill these, rather than adding a linux/module.h include to
this file?
Thanks.
