These symbol patterns were whitelisted to allow them to reference to
functions with the old __devinit and __devexit annotations.
We stopped doing this a long time ago, for example, commit
6f039790510f
("Drivers: scsi: remove __dev* attributes.") remove those annotations
from the scsi drivers.
Keep *_ops, *_probe, and *_console, otherwise they will really cause
section mismatch warnings.
