[PATCH] dvb/av7110: fix section mismatch

[Randy Dunlap]

From: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com>

Fix driver data name to match whitelist of acceptable names that contain
pointers init data so that section mismatch warning is placated.

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x141288): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:av7110_attach (between 'av7110_extension' and 'ir_protocol')
