4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ [ Upstream commit e3e61f01d755188cb6c2dcf5a244b9c0937c258e ] If gcc decides not to inline make_sensor_label(): WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x4df549c): Section mismatch in reference from the function .create_device_attrs() to the function .init.text:.make_sensor_label() The function .create_device_attrs() references the function __init .make_sensor_label(). This is often because .create_device_attrs lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of .make_sensor_label is wrong. As .probe() can be called after freeing of __init memory, all __init annotiations in the driver are bogus, and should be removed.
