I am queuing this for v3.5 since the tca6416 driver is set to Y by default when DA850 EVM is selected. So I suspect users will mostly remain unaffected by the bug. Thanks, Sekhar

This fixes: WARNING: arch/arm/mach-davinci/built-in.o(.text+0x2d84): Section mismatch in reference from the function da850_evm_ui_expander_setup() to the (unknown reference) .init.data:(unknown) The function da850_evm_ui_expander_setup() references the (unknown reference) __initdata (unknown). This is often because da850_evm_ui_expander_setup lacks a __initdata annotation or the annotation of (unknown) is wrong. Note this is a real issue because if the tca6416 driver only binds when the init sections are already discarded da850_evm_ui_expander_setup is called when da850_evm_devices might already be overwritten.
