Hello,

modpost checks about section mismatches are about to get stronger, see
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kbuild/20230930165204.2478282-1-u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de
.

With the above patch applied, enabling the exynos and kirin drivers as
modules result in a warning about their remove functions that is fixed
here. The keystone driver is a bit special as it can only be enabled
built-in and used __refdata on its driver struct. It also had a similar
issue for .probe fixed in the last patch.

IMHO all four patches qualify for backporting to stable.

Best regards
Uwe

I added stable tags and applied to pci/enumeration for v6.7, thanks!

I updated the subjects to be "Don't discard ... callback" to try to
give a little more semantic context.
