[root@yage wan]# pwd
/root/linux-2.6.1/drivers/net/wan
[root@yage wan]# grep __devexit_p *
dscc4.c:  .remove = __devexit_p(dscc4_remove_one),
farsync.c:  .remove = __devexit_p(fst_remove_one),

So this ones are wrong too I assume?

Mind explaining me what is the deal with __devexit_p() in 2.6?

driver with dev_dgb(...). Thanks for the hint.

Linus, hold the patch :)
