+EXPORT_SYMBOL(pci_bus_host_bridge);Yinghai, thanks for your time on this :-)quoted
why do you need to export it?The reason is that we have introduced extra fields to "struct pci_host_bridge" in [PATCH 2/2] and platform want to access those extra fields.But the platform code is built-in, not modular, so it doesn't need EXPORT_SYMBOL (additionally even if we wanted to export it we probably also want it _GPL only, so EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL, but I don't think we need to).
Ben, thanks for correcting me :-) Let me remove EXPORT_SYMBOL() is next revision.
Cheers, Ben.
Thanks, Gavin
