[PATCH] fix br_fdb_fini() section mismatch

[PATCH] fix br_fdb_fini() section mismatch

[Harald Welte]

When compiling a kernel (current linus git or 2.6.24-rc4) with built-in
CONFIG_BRIDGE, I get the following error:

  LD      .tmp_vmlinux1
`br_fdb_fini' referenced in section `.init.text' of net/built-in.o: defined in discarded section `.exit.text' of net/built-in.o
make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1

This patch fixes it.

Thanks, I already have this in my net-2.6.25 tree and will propagate
it to 2.6.24-rcX as well.
