The patch titled bootmem: remove useless __init in header file has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is bootmem-remove-useless-__init-in-header-file.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: bootmem: remove useless __init in header file From: Franck Bui-Huu <vagabon.xyz@xxxxxxxxx> __init in headers is pretty useless because the compiler doesn't check it, and they get out of sync relatively frequently. So if you see an __init in a header file, it's quite unreliable and you need to check the definition anyway.
