Folks:

When I compile dmfe.o statically into the 2.5.24 kernel, I get:

drivers/built-in.o(.data+0xba34): undefined reference to `local symbols in discarded section .text.exit'

The following patch seems to fix the problem:

}


-static void __exit dmfe_remove_one (struct pci_dev *pdev)
+static void __devexit dmfe_remove_one (struct pci_dev *pdev)
{
struct net_device *dev = pci_get_drvdata(pdev);
struct dmfe_board_info *db = dev->priv;

I'm not (usually) a kernel hacker; I'm just mimicking what others are doing
to fix similar errors. However, it is working for me right now.
