The patch titled cpu hotplug: make cpu_notifier related notifier calls __cpuinit only has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is cpu-hotplug-make-cpu_notifier-related-notifier-calls-__cpuinit-only.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: cpu hotplug: make cpu_notifier related notifier calls __cpuinit only From: Chandra Seetharaman <sekharan@xxxxxxxxxx> Make notifier_calls associated with cpu_notifier as __cpuinit. __cpuinit makes sure that the function is init time only unless CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is defined.
