PCI/checkpatch: Deprecate DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE
Prefer use of the direct definition of struct pci_device_id instead of indirection via macro DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE. Update the PCI documentation to deprecate DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE. Update checkpatch adding --fix option. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <[email protected]> Reviewed-by: Jingoo Han <[email protected]>
