H A Dpseries-rng.c257bedd4 Mon Mar 09 12:36:38 CDT 2015 Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov@gmail.com> hwrng: pseries - remove incorrect __init/__exit markups

Even if bus is not hot-pluggable, the devices can be unbound from the
driver via sysfs, so we should not be using __exit annotations on
remove() methods. The only exception is drivers registered with
platform_driver_probe() which specifically disables sysfs bind/unbind
attributes.

Similarly probe() methods should not be marked __init unless
platform_driver_probe() is used.
