Subject: [PATCH] compile fix for matrox fb 2.5.2-9

Hello all,

attached is a small compile fix for matroxfb.
I'm still unable to link it because of the binutils issues.

I lost the perl script, maybe someone allready has a fix ?

drivers/char/char.o(.data+0x46b4): undefined reference to `local symbols in discarded section .text.exit'
drivers/net/net.o(.data+0xd4): undefined reference to `local symbols in discarded section .text.exit'
make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1

cheers,
Patrick
