Commit c45f812f0280 ('8390 : Replace ei_debug with msg_enable/NETIF_MSG_* feature') ended up moving the printout of version[] from something that will be compiled out due to defines, to something that is now evaluated at runtime.
That means that what always used to be an access to an __initdata string from non-__init code started showing up as a section mismatch when it didn't before.
All other 8390 versions skip __initdata on the version string, and starting to annotate the whole chain of callers with __init seems like more churn than it's worth on this driver, so remove it from etherh.c as well.
