I am moving a driver from 3.1.2 to latest stabe (3.5.2). The driver gets compiled in 3.1.2 but throws errors in the latest one. Any help is appreciated. Thank you

Driver compiling in 3.5.2
I am moving a driver from 3.1.2 to latest stabe (3.5.2). The driver gets compiled in 3.1.2 but throws errors in the latest one. Any help is appreciated. Thank you

One more question. Have they done away with these functions?
i2c_add_driver( );
i2c_del_driver( );
module_init( );
module_exit( );
They do not seems to be present in other drivers in 3.5.2. Instead they use only one function - module_i2c_driver( );
Error logs and part of the code:

A naive mistake, I had to include <linux/module.h> file
