This doesn't make any sense. No other architecture specifies
the init sections in this way in their vmlinux.lds.S file.
Why is this change correct?
Can you try to track down the real problem that causes this
and then explain it clearly in the patch that you end up
posting?
I have trouble applying patches that are of the form "get rid
of this warning" with zero explanation for the reasoning
behind the fix being proposed :-)
