Hello, Compiling a 4.7 kernel with early_printk support, I get several section mismatch warnings: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x2222c8): Section mismatch in reference from the function univ8250_console_setup() to the function .init.text:early_print() The function univ8250_console_setup() references the function __init early_print(). This is often because univ8250_console_setup lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of early_print is wrong. WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x222b7c): Section mismatch in reference from the function serial8250_register_8250_port() to the function .init.text:early_print() The function serial8250_register_8250_port() references the function __init early_print(). This is often because serial8250_register_8250_port lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of early_print is wrong. WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x222cbc): Section mismatch in reference from the function serial8250_unregister_port() to the function .init.text:early_print() The function serial8250_unregister_port() references the function __init early_print(). This is often because serial8250_unregister_port lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of early_print is wrong. WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x222d84): Section mismatch in reference from the function serial8250_probe() to the function .init.text:early_print() The function serial8250_probe() references the function __init early_print(). This is often because serial8250_probe lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of early_print is wrong. WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x22446c): Section mismatch in reference from the function set_io_from_upio() to the function .init.text:early_print() The function set_io_from_upio() references the function __init early_print(). This is often because set_io_from_upio lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of early_print is wrong. I'm not sure if these warnings are expected. Can they be safely ignored?
