With a sparc64 defconfig modified to set CONFIG_HOTPLUG=n the following error happened during link of vmlinux: local symbol 0: discarded in section `.devexit.text' from drivers/built-in.o local symbol 1: discarded in section `.devexit.text' from drivers/built-in.o (The error message above is from kbuild.git but it happens in mainline too) The error happens becase there is a reference from .text/.data to a function marked __devexit. With CONFIG_HOTPLUG=n all code marked __devexit are discarded and the linker complains. It was tracked down to sparcspkr.c which were missing __devexit_p() around the function pointers. Unfortunately modpost did not catch this since modpost do not warn about references from .data to .devexit from variables named *_driver.
