No, as there will not be any discarded sections anymore because
CONFIG_HOTPLUG is always enabled. We will just delete this whole
#if/#endif section once all users of __devexit_p() are gone from the
tree.

Does that help out?
Yes, I missed the fact that there won't be any discarded sections
anymore. Btw, in that case, you'd probably need to remove all those

#ifdef CONFIG_HOTPLUG

...

#endif

stanzas surrounding different places in the kernel (I see 40ish
currenty) now that HOTPLUG is def_bool y and if you haven't done so yet.
That removal was done as part of this 493 patches long patchset :)
Thanks for explaining.

Btw, you can have my

Thanks, I will add it there,
