Subject[PATCH] hwmon: Fix spurious section mismatch warning in sht15.c
From
Fix spurious section mismatch warnings, caused due to reference from
variable sht_drivers to
__devinit/__devexit functions sht15_probe()/remove().

We were warned by the following warnings:

LD drivers/hwmon/built-in.o
WARNING: drivers/hwmon/built-in.o(.data+0x264a0): Section mismatch in
reference from the variable sht_drivers to the function
.devinit.text:sht15_probe()
The variable sht_drivers references
the function __devinit sht15_probe()
If the reference is valid then annotate the
variable with __init* or __refdata (see linux/init.h) or name the variable:
*driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console,
