The patch eliminates the following compiler warning:
Out of curiosity, which toolchain are you using ? I cross compile my mfd tree
for ARM, and I dont get this error...

It seems I was accidentally using an older version of CodeSourcery
toolchain (2007q3-51). I tried now with the recent one and warnings
do not appear. I'm still not sure if they were totally bogus or not...

drivers/mfd/twl4030-power.c: In function 'twl4030_power_init':
twl4030_power_init ? Isnt it twl4030_write_script ?

You are right, it seems the compiler does some inlining and
reports a wrong function name.

Cheers,
Samuel.
