[PATCH 07/17] Kbuild, lto, workaround: Don't warn for initcall_reference in modpost

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This reference is discarded, but can cause warnings when it refers to
exit. Ignore for now.

This is a workaround and can be removed once we get rid of
-fno-toplevel-reorder
