Building MIPS mtx1_defconfig results in: MODPOST 735 modules WARNING: drivers/net/pcnet32.o(.devinit.text+0x11ec): Section mismatch in reference from the function pcnet32_probe_vlbus.constprop.22() to the variable .init.data:pcnet32_portlist The function __devinit pcnet32_probe_vlbus.constprop.22() references a variable __initdata pcnet32_portlist. If pcnet32_portlist is only used by pcnet32_probe_vlbus.constprop.22 then annotate pcnet32_portlist with a matching annotation. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- As recently discussed in the discussion of submission of a fix for a similar bug in another driver remove __initdata rather than replace it with __devinitdata. drivers/net/pcnet32.c | 2 +- 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/pcnet32.c b/drivers/net/pcnet32.c index 8b3090d..80b6f36 100644 --- a/drivers/net/pcnet32.c +++ b/drivers/net/pcnet32.c @@ -82,7 +82,7 @@ static int cards_found; /* * VLB I/O addresses */ -static unsigned int pcnet32_portlist[] __initdata = +static unsigned int pcnet32_portlist[] = { 0x300, 0x320, 0x340, 0x360, 0 }; static int pcnet32_debug;
