A large number of them are due to the paravirt patches: WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .parainstructions between '__start_parainstructions' (at offset 0xc0458470) and '__stop_parainstructions' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .parainstructions between '__start_parainstructions' (at offset 0xc0458478) and '__stop_parainstructions' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .parainstructions between '__start_parainstructions' (at offset 0xc0458480) and '__stop_parainstructions' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .parainstructions between '__start_parainstructions' (at offset 0xc0458488) and '__stop_parainstructions' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .parainstructions between '__start_parainstructions' (at offset 0xc0458490) and '__stop_parainstructions' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .parainstructions between '__start_parainstructions' (at offset 0xc0458498) and '__stop_parainstructions' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .parainstructions between '__start_parainstructions' (at offset 0xc04584a0) and '__stop_parainstructions' WARNING: Can't handle masks in drivers/ata/ahci:FFFF05 WARNING: drivers/ata/pata_legacy.o - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .parainstructions after '' (at offset 0x18) WARNING: drivers/ata/pata_legacy.o - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .parainstructions after '' (at offset 0x20) WARNING: drivers/ata/pata_legacy.o - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .parainstructions after '' (at offset 0x28) WARNING: drivers/ata/pata_qdi.o - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .parainstructions after '' (at offset 0x0) WARNING: drivers/ata/pata_qdi.o - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .parainstructions after '' (at offset 0x8) but there are others too.
