The patch titled fix section mismatch warning in lockdep has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is fix-section-mismatch-warning-in-lockdep.patch *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: fix section mismatch warning in lockdep From: Sam Ravnborg <sam@xxxxxxxxxxxx> lockdep_init() is marked __init but used in several places outside __init code. This causes following warnings: $ scripts/mod/modpost kernel/lockdep.o WARNING: kernel/built-in.o - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:lockdep_init from .text.lockdep_init_map after 'lockdep_init_map' (at offset 0x105) WARNING: kernel/built-in.o - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:lockdep_init from .text.lockdep_reset_lock after 'lockdep_reset_lock' (at offset 0x35) WARNING: kernel/built-in.o - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:lockdep_init from .text.__lock_acquire after '__lock_acquire' (at offset 0xb2) The warnings are less obviously due to heavy inlining by gcc - this is not altered. Fix the section mismatch warnings by removing the __init marking, which seems obviously wrong.
