Building the kernel on s390 with -Og produces the following warning:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x28dabe): Section mismatch in reference from the function populate_section_memmap() to the function .meminit.text:__populate_section_memmap()
The function populate_section_memmap() references
the function __meminit __populate_section_memmap().
This is often because populate_section_memmap lacks a __meminit
annotation or the annotation of __populate_section_memmap is wrong.
While -Og is not supported, in theory this might still happen with
another compiler or on another architecture. So fix this by using the
correct section annotations.

So mm/sparse-vmemmap.c:__populate_section_memmap() already has this
annotation. I guess it's the right thing to do as
populate_section_memmap() is called from
static struct page * __meminit section_activate()
