Subject: i810_audio.c .text.exit reference in 2.4.17

I just want to mention that i810_audio.c suffers from referencing a
symbol in .text.exit(i810_remove), too, with the usual symptoms.

If that is still interesting, I don't know what fixes are in the work.

If the reference is coming from .text.lock then there is a patch
waiting for Marcelo to fix that. If the reference is coming from
another section then it is a bug.

So there are actually two kinds of those errors... It was coming from
the PCI function table, referencing i810_remove for its remove entry. I
fixed it locally with an #ifdef MODULE around that line.
