>> WARNING: mm/built-in.o(.meminit.text+0x2569): Section mismatch in reference from the function section_activate() to the function .init.text:section_active_mask()
   The function __meminit section_activate() references
   a function __init section_active_mask().
   If section_active_mask is only used by section_activate then
   annotate section_active_mask with a matching annotation.
