From: Jackie Liu <liuyun01@xxxxxxxxxx> Fix modpost Section mismatch error in next_platform_timer(). [...] WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(.text.unlikely+0x26e60): Section mismatch in reference from the function next_platform_timer() to the variable .init.data:acpi_gtdt_desc The function next_platform_timer() references the variable __initdata acpi_gtdt_desc. This is often because next_platform_timer lacks a __initdata annotation or the annotation of acpi_gtdt_desc is wrong.
