Multiple section mismatches are observed with the latest master. While attempting to fix the ones listed below, I came across more instances. The patch in this series fixes all these issues. Though most of the changes are straight-forward, but for these (for now annotated as ___refdata): 1) arch/arm/plat-omap/cpu-omap.c Variable omap_driver may be required beyond __init lifetime. 2) drivers/mfd/twl-core.c Variable twl_driver is used both in __init and __exit context. There are few more similar errors in some of the modules would submit them separately. WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x187c0): Section mismatch in reference from the function zoom_twl_gpio_setup() to the (unknown reference) .init.data:(unknown) The function zoom_twl_gpio_setup() references the (unknown reference) __initdata (unknown). This is often because zoom_twl_gpio_setup lacks a __initdata annotation or the annotation of (unknown) is wrong.

This is often because cm_t35_twl_gpio_setup lacks a __initdata annotation or the annotation of (unknown) is wrong.
