I don't like #if defined(MODULE) || defined(CONFIG_HOTPLUG) in open
code. If the rules for what gets discarded change (again) then those
ifdefs will be out of sync. That is why __devexit_p() is a wrapper, it
is defined once and only has to be changed once when the rules change.

Define a __devexit_call wrapper in include/linux/init.h at the same
place that __devexit_p is defined and use the wrapper around the calls.
Untested.

#if defined(MODULE) || defined(CONFIG_HOTPLUG)
#define __devexit_p(x) x
#define __devexit_call(x) x
#else
#define __devexit_call(x) do { } while (0)
#define __devexit_p(x) NULL
#endif

__devexit_call(bttv_remove(dev));
__devexit_call(uhci_pci_remove(dev));
