[PATCH] __devexit_p macro

Hi,

This patch defines __devexit_p when CONFIG_HOTPLUG || MODULE, instead of
when just CONFIG_HOTPLUG is defined.

This is needed for some net drivers (at least) that use "remove_one"
(which use unregister_netdev), allowing the driver to be re-installed.

This is the same behaviour that 2.4.

Patch against 2.5.30

Please consider pulling it from:
