The commit cf8741ac57ed ("ACPI: NUMA: HMAT: Register "soft reserved" memory as an "hmem" device") introduced a linker warning, WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x64ec3c): Section mismatch in reference from the function hmat_register_target() to the function .init.text:hmat_register_target_devices() The function hmat_register_target() references the function __init hmat_register_target_devices(). This is often because hmat_register_target lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of hmat_register_target_devices is wrong. Since hmat_register_target() is also called from hmat_callback(), and then register_hotmemory_notifier() where it should not be freed when hmat_init() is done, it indicates the annotation of hmat_register_target_devices() is incorrect.
