mxcnd_probe_dt is called from mxcnd_probe, which is not marked as __init.

Using the sysfs unbind, bind nodes, mxcnd_probe and mxcnd_probe_dt can
potentially be called at any time. After the __init functions are cleaned,
mxcnd_probe_dt is no longer available. Calling it anyway causes a crash.

I hope that my understanding is correct.

In practice, I could not get the kernel to crash, my compiler would
inline mxcnd_probe_dt into mxcnd_probe and ignore the __init.

If I marked mxcnd_probe_dt as noinline, I could trigger a crash as
follows

[root@host ]# echo bb000000.nand > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/mxc_nand/unbind
[root@host ]# echo bb000000.nand > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/mxc_nand/bind
Internal error: Oops - undefined instruction: 0 [#1] ARM
