The patch titled
Remove __devinitdata from notifier block definitions
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename is
remove-__devinitdata-from-notifier-block-definitions.patch
This patch was probably dropped from -mm because
it has now been merged into a subsystem tree or
into Linus's tree, or because it was folded into
its parent patch in the -mm tree.
From: Chandra Seetharaman <sekharan@xxxxxxxxxx>
A few of the notifier_chain_register() callers use __initdata in the
definition of notifier_block data structure. It is incorrect as the data
structure should be available after the initializations (they do not
unregister them during initializations).
This was leading to oops when notifier_chain_register() call is invoked for
those callback chains after initialization.
This patch fixes all such usages to _not_ have the notifier_block data
structure in the init data section.
