Subjectqla2xxx: Correct compilation issues when CONFIG_MOUDLES=n (was: Re: linux-next: Tree for September 7 (scsi/qla2x))
Randy Dunlap noted:

when CONFIG_MODULES=n:

drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_os.c:2685: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type

in
kobject_uevent_env(&(&vha->hw->pdev->driver->driver)->owner->mkobj.kobj,
KOBJ_CHANGE, envp);
