Commit dd076cffb8cd ("serial: sh-sci: Fix init data attribute for struct 'port_cfg'") properly removed the __init attribute, and changed it to __initdata. The __init function early_console_setup() takes the address of global port_cfg and assigns it to a field in another global, sci_ports: static int __init early_console_setup(struct earlycon_device *device, int type) { ... port_cfg.type = type; sci_ports[0].cfg = &port_cfg; ... } port_cfg, however, is now in __initdata: static struct plat_sci_port port_cfg __initdata; ... but sci_ports is not: static struct sci_port sci_ports[SCI_NPORTS]; Thus, there is a non-__initdata variable containing the address of a __initdata struct. Fix this section type conflict by just removing the __initdata attribute.
